SUSE LiveCD 9.1 won't boot on my xp box
 

I wanna try it out. I put the CD in the drive, turn the PC on and it always just boots into XP. Anyone know the problem?

You need to set the CD-ROM as the first boot device in the BIOS.

Thanks, posting from the boot CD now. I may install it on a partition, way too damn slow off a CD :winkwink:

Cluck, have you looked at Knoppix?

KNOPPIX is a bootable CD with a collection of GNU/Linux software, automatic hardware detection, and support for many graphics cards, sound cards, SCSI and USB devices and other peripherals. KNOPPIX can be used as a Linux demo, educational CD, rescue system, or adapted and used as a platform for commercial software product demos. It is not necessary to install anything on a hard disk. Due to on-the-fly decompression, the CD can have up to 2 GB of executable software installed on it.

gentoo!
