booting problem for fedora 6

[anoop12]

hello everyone,

I have windows installed on my PC. Now I want to install fedora 6 on it. When I insert fedora 6 DVD, my PC does not boot from that DVD. How should I proceed installation?

Check to make sure your system is configured to be able to boot from the CD/DVD drive.
Refer to your system's manual to get into the BIOS or firmware utility. Then see how to change the boot options so the CD/DVD yo ware to boot from is the first option.

Depending on your mother board type, you will press certain button (e.g. Del) until you see setup, then from change boot sequence to let CD-ROM on top of the list, then if ur DVD is bootable and OK, it will start with it

Best Wishes,
Ahmad,

You will also need some unpoartitioned space on your hard disk. Linux makes its own partitions on un-partitioned space.

also be sure that your dvd is bootable.

First you make sure that you have partitioned your hard drive. One for Windows and the other for Fedora Core 6.

Second you need to change the BIOS setup and select boot to DVD/CD ROM option.

Third read first how to before you proceed.....but I think it's better for you to do the Third option first.....enjoy
