I'm still trying to load Linux
« on: June 18, 2007, 03:45:20 PM »


And it's not happening!!!

And NOW I can't find the instructions Barman sent me. I know it's on one of these threads but you buggers keep posting and moving things about.

You didn't really get taken in and try to load Linus Mandible or whatever?

I sent it to you in a message...  noooo:

Once you have downloaded the file (assuming you got the right one) use easy CD Creator (or whatever) to burn the file to a bootable CD image.

Then re-boot your PC and it automatically installs itself and runs from the CD.
