Hi Clayton,<br><br>Thanks for giving it a try. :) I'm not a technical expert, and could use brush-up on my bug-reporting skills myself, but the first thing to check is to see if your downloaded image and burnt-cd have any errors.
<br><br>To check the downloaded image for any errors, use your command-line terminal to navigate to the folder where the ISO is saved to your hard drive, and then type in "md5sum name-of-file.iso". After a couple of moments, your computer will return an "md5sum" code to you. You can go to the web page where you downloaded the ISO and look for a text file called md5sum. If your md5sum matches the md5sum on the website, then you know that your original download is good.
<br><br>If it is good, the next thing to do would be to check the integrity of your CD. You can do that by putting it in your computer, and then selecting "check cd for defects" or (something similar) when the initial boot-selection screen comes up. It will take a couple of minutes to check, but
<br><br>It's normally a good idea to do these to checks every time you go to test or install an image.<br><br>If that passes, then it's time to check for bugs. :-) Rather than explain all of that here, I'd suggest checking out the informative wiki page, Helping with bugs:

I just tried to boot the latest Feisty ISO. It hangs at "Loading..."<br>The previous<br>version hangs the same way.<br><br>Hardware is a Sony VAIO FS-760/W Notebook. It runs Dapper just fine. (Fine<br>enough for me anyhow.)
<br><br>What should I do to help diagnose this?<br><br>Thanks,<br>Mark<br>--<br><a href="mailto:clayton256@gmail.com" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">clayton256@gmail.com</a><br><br>
