Put down the coffee and the computer and go get some sleep. Man, you sound stressed. Now, make sure you burned the CDs right and see a lot of files instead of one big file on the CDs. Next make sure you did not burn a bunch of CDs with only the source rpms. If you got a CD full of src rpms then back to downloading you go. After that set your BIOS or CMOS to boot from CD. If you do not already have a partition ready to put linux on you will have to resize your partition. If your XP is set to ntfs these instructions are pretty good: http://www.hut.fi/~tkarvine/linux-windows-dual-boot-resizing-ntfs.html Now ....... Put the CD into the drive. Reboot the computer. The installer called anaconda (who cares what its called right?) comes up and will prompt you through the install.
