Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide
This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

Have you checked the md5sums of the image you burnt? Tried a different brand of media, or cdrom drive?
Why the double post?

I think I refrased this topic, because the other post didnt attract any attention. I havent tried any other media etc.... because the Sarge disks worked fine. MD5Sums matched, so I sent an email on the lists.debian.org, and found ti was actually a problem, becausr the disks are autobuilt, and they were in the process of fixing it. In the end I just dist-upgraded using the sarge disks
Cheers, Buck

I posted the very same problem a day ago, basically when you burn the image with nero, you must close the session. otherwise the boot process fails to see the 2.6 directory.
Let me know if this does the trick
