I used my windows machine and Nero to burn the iso images to cd's. I have an old machine that I am trying to install 5.4-release on. It is a PII 333, SCSI with 30GB scsi hard drive. I place cd 1 in the drive (disk 1 iso) and reboot the machine. When it boots, it looks to the cdrom drive as the first boot device. When it does, my screen is full of scrolling text which looks like dump info. It scrolls on and on. Any ideas on the problem ? thanks, Darryl
