As the OP, may I say again that I am not a Ubuntu mole.
But if someone advertises a boot disk,
whether it is a test release or not,
it should boot.

I like Fedora (although the difference between Linux distributions
is exaggerated to a ludicrous degree, IMHO -
I'd love to test fanatics by getting them to say which is running
on a particular laptop),
but in my experience there is something wrong
with Anaconda's basic approach to CD readers.

Personally, I am willing to put up with problems installing a distribution
if I really want to install it,
and I have put up with enormous problems in the past to install Fedora -
the worst being, as I mentioned, on Sony PictureBooks.

I wish Fedora would undertake some modest investigation
to see what problems people have with installation.
I have suggested this, but been told that it would be a mammoth task,
which I find difficult to believe.
