    Can't boot from external CD drive after Ubuntu Remix install.

    I have an Acer netbook that I installed Remix on. Now I can't get the thing to boot from the CD drive which is connected via the USB port. Any suggestions? I set the boot order with the CD drive first and the HD last.

    From the Arch Wiki to change boot order on Acer Aspire One

    Press F12 at BIOS post or change boot order with F2 to select your installation method. (On some systems, F12 might not be enabled by default, and you must hit F2 to enter the BIOS and enable it).
    Good Luck with it.
