booting from newly burned CD

[Bill Diamond]

Steve,
When you boot from the first cd and begin the installation process,
you'll be prompted whether you want to test the CDs first.

I'd recommend testing them.  Clunky old PCs can have very clunky CD
drives that skate, making any OS installation frustrating.  On some
computers you may have to hit a key during the boot process to force the
computer to boot from CD. Until recently,  owned a Toshiba laptop that
made you do that.
