How can I install Windows XP on an Ubuntu, Linux OS?
biohazard asked:
It’s me again. I inserted the XP installer cd then restarted the system. On the start-up the screen says, “PRESS ANY KEY TO BOOT FROM CD…”, but that doesn’t work. i repeated it several times but ubuntu doesn’t seem to respond whenever i am pressing a key to boot from cd. ubuntu is just starting the system without booting.
any help?
Boot from CD on compaq armada V300?
eg asked:
Hi, I would like to install linux on a compaq armada v300. In the bios options, it doesn’t have the boot from cd option. What should I do? I’m trying to install xubuntu, latest version. I did a cd with the alternate edition, but, as I said, it won’t boot.
Thanks

josh m asked:
Im trying to load xubuntu (linux) onto my mac. But it wont boot! (ive bruned the image onto a cd) but when the computer fully loads it accepts the cd as a cdr.
The problem is i cant get it to boot. I’ve held the the ‘c’ and ‘d’ keys, it wont boot from the cd!
I have a mac powerbook G3 (ppc), adn trying to load xubuntu 7.10.
haha lol, xubuntu allows you to burn it so all disks made are legal

how does one boot up from a cd-rom drive on a mac g3?
lymber1 asked:
i know i need to upgrade the machine, but until i do i can’t get the mac to boot up from the cd-rom even when there is a bootable disk..
i have tried holdin down the “c” key but that did not owrk then i tried a couple of times “ctrl-option-shift-delete”
but that did not worked either… i even swapped the cd drive with a known working aopple cd rom drive……just for those who are curious i am installing xubuntu 6.10 or ubuntu for mac 6.06
i know that these os work on a mac cauase i have done it before but i for some reason cannot get this one to work…. it only wants to boot to the harddrive.
