booting from CD. The only thing really important is that

your hard drive has to be correctly prepared. Take a look

at <A

HREF="paloappusage.html#bootablepartition"
|
|
>Section 3.3.3</A

prepare it.

then you can jump to next step, or you don't.
|

In this last case, issue a <B

That's all. If everything goes fine, it will start booting the kernel

as setup by <B
