Help booting up Debian
Hello,
  I am trying to install Debian.  I am a first time user but Linux sounds great and I want to try it out.  I have already partitioned my hard drive to accept the new OS, and I downloaded the ?alpha? version of Debian and burned it to a DVD-RW, then I restarted my computer and set the BIOS to boot from the CD/DVD drive, but the computer still started Windows even though I could see it started reading the DVD drive, then it just loaded Windows as normal.  Then I downloaded the ?AMD? version of Debian and burned it to a DVD.  When I
 restarted my computer, the DVD drive was obviously reading but then Windows loaded as normal.
   
  If you could offer any advice that would help, I would really appreciate it.
   
  Thanks in advance,
   
  Michael Mozenko
