Hi :) This guide might help https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootFromCD Even though it is written for Ubuntu it is almost identical for other distros as usual ;)
When you try to boot an Ubuntu Cd it gives you a pop=-up screen with a language selector and 2 buttons 1. Try Ubuntu (this often doesn't work and just hangs the system) 2. Install Ubuntu (has lots of "Back" buttons) Soi click on the "Install" and then at click on the "Back" buttons until i get back to that screen with the language selector and the 2 options. Now the "Try Ubuntu" button works! I keep forgetting to post a bug-report about it.
