I can't boot from CD

Post by uiii »

Hello,
I have an old PC, that can't boot from CD. How can I start installation with floppy disk? I try to boot with smart boot manager (on floppy) but I got error message ("Failed to read the PVD"). What can I do? Please help me.

You could try installing SmartBootManager (freeware). I had success in getting a VERY old Toshiba laptop to boot CDROMs but at present there are problems (bugs) in the development versions of ROS live CD. The older versions should be okay.

Try searching Google http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=smart+boot+manager
