hi friends

My problem is that when I hit some

> boot:live
> boot:live-expert
> boot:linux
> boot:expert

   I would like to mention another thing that I

   But when I install fedor core 1 there seems to be no

   Are there any boot parameters that I should give or is at any hardware
problem that I have. My PC configuration is
>
> AMD Athlon 2400
> 256 MS ddr RAM
> Seagate 40 GB hard disk
> MSI 6380 motherboard
> keyboard iKey (PS2) ( I think it is an indian company)

Is it a problem with my CDROM it has been creating strange noises lately.
Sorry for mailing without a subject earlier
