| 249041 | 2004-07-01 11:32:00 | Go into your BIOS, and change the device boot sequence to include the CD drive before the HDD, save and exit. That's it. Cheers Murray P |

| 249045 | 2004-07-01 11:54:00 | Well at least you didn't ask how to get into the BIOS and have us ask what sort of Motherboard or BIOS you have. :-) |

| 249048 | 2004-07-01 22:26:00 | Try Mepis Baldy. You can get it from one of the mirrors listed at www.mepis.org if your keen. Check out the forums or news as there was a dodgy mirror last time I looked or use Bittorrent to download, you can try out the free version and upgrade it to your hearts content if you want. It's a live CD but does a better job of installing to your HDD than Knoppix IMO. Cheers Murray P |
