Need Linux help...
 

...Calling Simplex3...or anyone who can help.

I d/l DVDLive, burned it to DVD and rebooted. When my machine restarted it booted into some form of DOS with an "A:\>" any ideas on what went wrong?

Here's my system specs.

thanks!

Well, I've waisted two DVD's trying to get this to work. I'm thinkin that Linux is probably not for me.

Something tells me that the download may have been corrupted.

Do you have a floppy in your floppy drive?

Did you set up your machine to bood to DVD?

Just tossing stuff out there...

Linux? Why fight against the force? Bill is your friend.

I wonder.:hmmm:

One thing springs to mind. You downloaded an ISO image of a cd, you can't just burn that file to a CD. Sounds like you burned the file to a data cd and made it DOS bootable. What you need to do is actually burn the ISO to cd. "Create CD from Image" I think is what Roxio and some of the others call it.

If you pop that CD in under Windows and look at the drive, do you see the .iso file on it?

Hold on a min. and I'll let ya see what it looks like when I pop it in the drive.

..

ROFL guru was right.. you didnt burn the Iso right..

good thing i didnt bet him 5 dollars

you need to open the file with Nero and then Burn instand of opening Nero and adding the file

Damnit Carl!!! :cuss:

What can I say? I'm the man.

No! You're the Elmo!!! :harumph:

Funny, your mom said the same thing about 9 months before you were born. Except it kind of had more of a moaning sound to it. :shrug:

I'll give it a shot; and ya know what they say about a fool and his money...ROFL

Nah, it was probably more of an "are you done yet?"

Just remember, it will say something about "burn image" or some-such s**t. Usually the word "image" or "iso" are in there somewhere.

Most women say that after a couple hours of pounding.

Nah, it would have been more like a couple minutes.

Put it this way, I am lucky to even be here. ROFL

Not really lucky. She had herself artificially insemenated afterwards and sued me for paternity.

Daddy!!!!! ROFL

Nah, if they'd have proven that you'd be much better off than you are today.

:hmmm: :hmmm: :hmmm:
Just have to find the proof. :harumph: ROFL

Thanks for the help everyone; and it would have worked too if I just had enough RAM!!:banghead:

ROFL
Fitting!!!

...If nothing else.:banghead:

The good news is that I'm off work until Tuesday and today is my 23rd Wedding anniversary. :D
