Re: How to boot from Sarge CD#1 if BIOS does not support booting from CD

[Syed Huq <rathon@gmail.com>]

It's Working!!

Strange but this is what I did:

I put my "Woody"-CD#1 and restarted my PC. It booted from the CD. ( ??)
I shutdown the PC and then..
Then I put "Sarge"-CD#1 and now it is booting from the PC..

Problem solved but not sure how..

Thanks for all the fast responses from many of you..
