Gives,
I am trying to install linux on a IBM thinkpad 770e. Old I know. At the moment it only has 97mbs of ram. The problem is that the downloaded installation ISO has a problem booting. "Cannont boot from this CD. Please use CD2 or try a Bios update. I never downloaded a secound CD and never saw one available. If there is one could some one show me where to download it. Anyone else experience this problem and was able to fix please help me out. Thanks.

How much Ram have you got?

[Volks]

512MB
no Ubuntu is doing the same thing to me
i booted from the live CD last night of Ubuntu 6.10 but i didnt have time to install i was only checking the CD worked.
now im trying to install Ubuntu and its giving me the same error as the Mint CD
also sometimes it says "boot failed hit any key to retry"
i think its my cd drive..

Hi
Thats enough of RAM

Do you get a ISOlinux... message before the "hit any key" message?

Try unplugging any USB devices as
bios sometimes defaults second device to usb.

Also have you tried cleaning heads on
CDRom, that has caught me out before.
