booting from cd

[u231]

i cant seem to get a cd that ive made to boot for any distro exept from the odd debian cd, I have at least three different copeis of fedora and the debian woody

u231,
not to sure what it is that you're trying to do.

Are you trying to burn a bootable Linux CD? Or are you trying to read a CD and only debian will read it? Or is it something else?

Please enlighten me.

thanks

i'm trying to get my computer to boot from the cd my boot order is correct, ive burned the cd on 3 different cdburners, with three burning programs on two computers

[ooop]

maybe the boot-image is ....
erroneous?

[u231]

but on two different distros with two differt machines

are u sure ur buring it right... cause bootable isos need to be burned with the first sector in proper place. IF u are using Nero, check for an option called create bootable CD and when it asks for the bootable image point to ur linux iso. For any other burning software check if it provides any similar function. nero is available for demo download

i tried it with a new type of disk and with fresh iso and it's booted, thanks
