Hey! Welcome to the list! What is your name?
Have you checked the boot order listed in your BIOS? There should be an
option for setting the boot precident of devices. What is your
motherboard's model number?

I d/l'd the distro yesterday as the "live" version and burned the CD. Works
fine on my Pentium 4 system and I was impressed by how much functionality I
had with the default boot. It actually "saw" my Vicam USB camera, although
it couldn't use it. It recognized my SoundBlaster Audigy card! I didn't
expect to have an easy time with the cam or a printer.
I wanted to load a distro on my old Pentium II 400mhz system (256M ram) and I
wanted to try the "live" distro first. Unfortunately, the BIOS of that
system is not recognizing the setup instructions to boot from a CD (and I
think it did at one time - how did I load Windows 98 or Windows ME on it?).
I tried updating the BIOS with a later version, but it hasn't seemed to help.
The CD drive works fine under an OS.
That system has an ASUS P2B mainboard. Anyone have any experience with this
problem? I am still researching jumpers on the mainboard.
