The CD will only boot in 1 out of 4 of my computers. I have tried several different burners and downloads. I have not had time to look very hard but looking on the test list (where this question really belongs) there is a known issue with the test 2 CD and some, I think older, non-Intel systems. Interestingly enough I cannot get the CD to boot on 2 Intel systems but it works fine on and Athlon system. Anyway, there are suggestions on the test list regarding how to work around this issue for the older non-Intel systems that would probably work in other cases as well.
