Yes I did mention my CD/DVD drive, for that problem is that the BIOS is 
not seeing this drive, as for creating a bootable CD I have 7 of cd's 
that I have had no problems when used on my desktop...

But this laptop that I am trying to get Linux on the, Asus X553ma will 
not see the CD drive nor can I get the thumb drive to work...It boots 
off of the USB thumb drive shows the start up screen, but stops saying this.

BusyBox (ubuntu 1;1.22.0-9 UBUNTU1) Built in shell (ash)
(initramfs) Unable to find a medium containing a live file system...

Thats all I can tell you...

Just wish I could get the BIOS to see the CD drive...

Yes I have tried Unetbootin and another one, yet the problem still is 
here...

Thanks Larry
