Did you simply copy the .iso to the CD? That is the wrong way to do it,
if so. See http://www.debian.org/CD/faq/

If your machine won't boot from any CD then verify your bios settings;
it should try the CDrom before attempting to boot from the hard disk.

For the first time linux user, www.ubuntulinux.org/download isn't
enough, nor is this kitech.com.my/ubuntu/4.10/  I guess that is why
they're shipping free CDs?
