<Deleted question, but his 6.1 install CD freezes on a laptop>

If the other fine suggestions given by the others on this list do
not solve the problem, a couple other suggestions come to mind.

Redownloading and reburning the CD would be the first suggestion.
If the CD does not boot correctly, does diskettes (if you computer
still as one of course)?

The next suggestion is to get a list of components from the install
of the other OSes that work. That list and the verbose boot may point
out a device that the OS is having giving you difficulty.
