    KDE 4 live CD boot problem

    I am trying unix first time for my desktop. (Finally got fed up of windows)
    I downloaded KDE live - KDE-Four-Live.i686.1.0.71.iso
    Checked md5 and burnt CD.

    my laptop is reaching the splash screen where I choose KDE 4 live session.
    but after this, in next screen, it just hangs and doesn't do anything.

    On pressing escape, i see some verbose and in the end,

    Drive not ready yet...waiting
    Drive not ready yet...waiting
    Drive not ready yet...waiting

    and doesn't do anything..
    appreciate your help.

    I have compaq laptop with windows XP home edition, graphics card -ATI 128

    That live cd is meant as a preview and for testing purposes by developers and bug busters. If you are new to Linux, then I suggest you try the live versions of openSUSE, Mandriva, Fedora and Ubuntu.
