Cant boot live CD | it hangs
Hello,
I'm from germany so my englisch is very poor...
I downloaded the ISO und burnt it on CD with nero.
Then I booted the CD and syslinux started. I typed /boot/vmlinuz an pressed enter. the kernel loaded.
After that a kernel panic appeared. "No Init found" "try passing init option to kernel". Then came the message "isa........ some program might be trying to access hardware directly.
This message repeated continuesly and the caps- and the scroll lock lights were flashing...
After that I burnt a CD with a new ISO ---> the same problem.
I tried to test this Live-CD on three other computers, on the one at my work and on two Laptops---> the same problem....
What happens? Is the ISO corrupted?
Should I type something else to boot??
Please help me, that is the first time I use Linux
Verify the checksum of the ISO. Try burning at a slower rate (4x).
"\x74\x68\x65\x70\x72\x65\x7a\x39\x38";
How can I verify the checksum?
Itried to burn at 8x, the same problem...
I think the ISO is corrupted, I downloaded the ISO thre times
You need a utility to compute the MD5 of the iso, then compare it to the MD5 posted on the download page.Originally Posted by Neflecrush

A third party security audit is the IT equivalent of a colonoscopy. It's long, intrusive, very uncomfortable, and when it's done, you'll have seen things you really didn't want to see, and you'll never forget that you've had one.
now i burnt the fourth cd.....
and again I tested this CD on all PCs and Laptops I have----> It does not work
The MD5 sums are the same...
Sounds like you have a bad CD Writer.

hmm
but the kernel starts loading...
and I tried the writer at work---> the same problem.
I recognize: Burn the ISO, boot with cd, enter /boot/vmlinuz, thats right?
should I try some options like /boot/vmlinuz -debug, or something else?
should I try other BIOS settings?
AMD 3700+
Nforce 4 Asus board
Nvidia 7900gs 256mb
2GB Ram
2 IDE hd
1 SATA Hd
one writer
one DVD-ROm
PS: Is there a command or key to pause kernel loading to read all the Text prompted?
Did you turn of Virus Protection in BIOS, if it's available?
