    Hi Stan, there is either something wrong with the CD-Rom or, your 
Computer.

    This error message means either your CD-Rom is not bootable ie: not 
correct, or your BIOS is not set to boot from a CD.

    Please do this: Come up in BIOS and make certain boot from the CD is 
before boot to a hard drive(s). If this already set up correct I 
recommend you go to the Ubuntu web page and buy a CD from them. It will 
get there in a few days and work.

    I am 5 hours and 9 seconds from getting hardy from d/l and it has 
been a real pain. You don't want to d/l a real new Linux. And never tell 
which mirror your using.
