    I may just be ignorant, but for the life of me, I can not get Fusion to boot. It could be I've never had to do something like this, because I've always used distros that selfbooted.

    Anyway, I can't get it to boot of the CD. Is it just me, and if so, what am I doing wrong and how do I correct it?

    Keep it up you guys, Fusion sounds really cool, much better than some distros I know

      What does the kernel say when it boots or does it just not boot at all

      No booting.. I can deal with all the errors after it gets booted up.. It just won't boot. Skips right past any of that and goes on to trying to boot off hda.. which of course is nice and empty, cause I'm ready to install fusion on it..

      And yes, I have went and looked and made sure, checked it with other linux distros etc, all work fine. Just this

      How new is your cdrom? From what i read and did we use 100% compatible eltoro cd boot

        Couple years.  Nothing I'd say unexpected of a computer to run linux for fun. As I said, it can boot all my other distros (RH, Gentoo, etc) as well as things like freeBSD and DOS :)

      try checking your BIOS settings, When your computer is going through its initial boot up sequence (checking your ram and stuff) press delete and change your boot sequence. Hope it helps!
