Posted 2005-09-04, 09:01 PM
I registered for 10 free ubuntu cd a couple of months ago and they finally came and they include a live CD that you can use to boot linux but your computer has to be set to boot from disk and i dont know how to set my computer to boot from disk.
Think not disdainfully of death, but look on it with favor; for even death is one of the things that Nature wills.

You have to get into the bios settings. For my gateway, I just have to smash my f2 key.

Meh, smashing it gives me something to do while it boots.

Be sure you know how to reinstall Windows because I'm pretty sure it's going back on there when you realize that linux sucks.

Mantra lies. Linux is god. If you got any questions once you install it, hit me up with an IM, PM, whatever, I'll try to help the best I can.
