To boot off of the "disks" I'm guessing your talking about your installed/attached CD.

Yes, you can do it with a floppy (a whole lot of them) but you'll grow old doing it.

Suspicision has it that you're doing something or have done something wrong and it's probably so basic that you can't see it, which is easy enough done these days if you hurry or are impatient.

If I might suggest, make a backup of the MS files you now have, put these on a CD (or a series of these) and then re-install the MS system you're using. Once that's done, then install the Linux OS system of your choice. You'll use the better part of an afternoon or evening doing this so first, put a pot of coffee on.

For what it's worth I've just re-installed Suse v10.0 on the "old" Dell Inspiron 5100 and rather than use the CDs, I used the DVD which came with the package; went smooth as could be and everything appears to be working like a charm.

Hope this helps.
