Kernel panic on DVD boot

[cowdog88]

I popped in the suse live dvd and it stopped here....kernel panic - not syncing - attempted to kill init. I have not done anything except put in the dvd and change the bios to run the dvd.

i don't know where can you pass arguments during installation or using livecd.

but try passing one of these arguments linux

ide=nodma

linux acpi=off

linux acpi=off apm=off

linux nofb

linux i8042.nomux

Insert SuSe DVD, boot up from it and Highlight Installation title. type options one by one suggested by abhishek456 ( without word linux ) and hit Enter key.
Could you post the error that appear before kernel panic error?

is says....init: mount cloop: Invalid argument.....When i installed fedora i had to pass clocksource=acpi_pm. Is there something similar here?

This is the entire error
init: Cannot find the CD I was booted from - doh!
(need to mount this cd/dvd to /.cd.real)
init: exec /bin/busybox: No such file or directory
init: mount cd-rom device: no such file or directory
/.cd.real/cloop.img: No such file or directory
isofs_fill_super: bread failed, dev=cloop0, iso_blknum=16, block=32
init: mount cloop: invalid arguement
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!

No suggestions???

did you burn the DVD yourself? or did you buy a copy?
If you burned it yourself, you might need to check the md5sum to make sure the *.iso file and DVD have the same md5sum.
Check the little script out if you want help: Coasterless CD Burning

hope this helps
