neb1211 Posted September 20, 2003 Posted September 20, 2003 It could be that your cd is corrupted. Another thing that you might want to check is keep pressing F8 until the boot menu comes up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
VolcomPimp Posted September 20, 2003 Posted September 20, 2003 (edited) cd works fine on this comp.... I setup the boot order for cdrom to boot b4 hard drive and also theres a boot menu that lets you selecet which to boot but when I choose cdrom it doesnt work and just boots linux.... is it possible to install slackware from within redhat 9??? I dont have a floppy drive and since the cd wont boot I need 2 find another way to install slack...
