                      <div>Hi!<br>
                        <br>
                      </div>
                      I've done many Linux installations earlier but
                      today an Dell Vostro 200(Intel Core 2 Duo) machine
                      failed me in all possible ways.<br>
                      <br>

                    Briefly,<br>
                    OS                               Bootable Medium  
                    Boot Disk creator<br>
                    -------------------------------    
                    -------------------------  
                    ----------------------------------------------------<br>
                    1) Ubuntu 11.10 & 13.04 --   USB Drive
                    --          UnetBootin(Linux),
                    Live-USB-Installer(Linux)<br>

                  <div>[Message: "Boot Error"]<br>

                  2) Debian 6                        
                  CD                       Burnt from an ISO<br>
                  <br>
                </div>
                [Result: Many installation stages failed, reporting boot
                medium fault. Please note that I used this disc
                successfully many times so far]<br>
                <br>
                <br>
              </div>
              At last, Fedora 17 from a CD got installed.<br>
              <br>
              * I don't have a clue how I should troubleshoot this
              situation.<br>
              * I absolutely have no idea what to do in a scenario where
              BIOS allows booting from USB but still nothing shows up
              from an all perfect installation media.<br>
              <br>
            </div>
                         Is there something which I should have done?<br>
