Re: Booting off of the RHEL4.6-ia64-ES-disc1.iso

Al,

Do you have your computer's BIOS set up to boot from CD ROM?  Typical settings are boot order and activating the CD ROM as bootable.

If these settings are correct, maybe run a checksum on the downloaded ISO.  You'll need an md5 program that does checksums and then compare it to the one that RedHat provides on the download page.  If the checksums do not match it means the download did not work correctly (not that uncommon actually).

What does the computer do when it doesn't work?  Does it report a particular error, boot an existing OS, etc.?

I downloaded the RHEL4.6-ia64-ES* ISO files, and burned the RHEL4.6-ia64-ES-disc1.iso to a CD.

I attempted to boot off of it and it simply doesn't.

I used Windows Sonic DigitalMedia Plus v7, using the Copy -> Burn Image option.

What am I doing wrong?
