Slackware 11.0 boot from cd problem
 

I downloaded the 3 ISOs for Slackware 11.0 and burned them to CD-Rs. I put the first one in the cd drive and rebooted. Unfortunately, the PC booted to grub(on the hard drive) and not the CD. I know the BIOS is set correctly because I can boot to DSL (Damn Small Linux) and I know the CD is good because it booted up on another PC. I also checked the md5 check sum of the ISO and it came out correctly. Any help? If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

Thanks, Kaz

I suggest that you have a look at this thread.

Burn your .iso onto CD at the slowest speed, no faster than 4X. I've found that high speed .iso burns can be problematic.

Luck!

if md5sum checks then it is burned correctly

Also, burn your ISO as an Image, not a regular file

Thanks Allend. I read the thread and I tried the 10.2 version trick where you boot from the 10.2 cd and then switch to the 11.0 cd. It worked perfectly. Slackware is installing as I type this. Thanks you guys for your advice.
