Which file did you use?  DVD, CD, a Live disc...  I'm assuming a live
disc, going from the list below, but I haven't looked at a Fedora 11
live disc to know specifically what's on it.

The Caldera reference baffles me.  Is Caldera something that you've
previously installed on your hard drive, and that's booting instead of
the CD?

Is your computer set up to boot from the DVD/CD drive, before trying to
boot from the hard drive.

More precise details will be needed for someone to assist you.

Very early on in the bootup you should have a splash screen referring to your 
motherboard.  At the bottom there should be an instruction on how to get to 
the BIOS - it's often called Setup.  Once you get there there should be a 
screen for boot options.  You have to make sure that CD is at the top of the 
list (it normally doesn't say DVD).

This seems to be exactly the same message you posted two days ago, to
which several people gave reasonable answers. Did you read those
answers? Did you try the suggestions?

Exactly how did you write the .iso to a disc? Which OS and which 
burning software did you use? Did you do something to the .iso 
file before burning? What functions/options of the burning 
software did you use. Be as specific as possible. Read this 
document: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html 
before responding.

Are you certain that you burned an image, not a copy of the disk?  When you 
look at the disk either in windows or on another linux computer, do you see 
one large file or a complete file structure?

Easy stuff to check first!

1)   Did you burn the boot disk as an .iso disk rather than a data disk?

2)   Have you set up your BIOS boot order so that your removable disk
drive is searched first for an operating system i.e. before your hard
drive?

3)   Have you read the Fedora 11 installation guide at
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/install-guide/f11/en-US/html/

The installation guide will tell you how to install from LiveCD, CD's (6
of them I believe) or DVD.  It is usually very simple; don't be
intimidated. 

If you are still having problems, get back to this users list. There are
lots of experienced people here willing to help.
