I was just given a Compaq Persario R3000 laptop. I was going to dual
boot it to learn windows, but no luck with the cd's. With the stable cd
from 12/13/2004 and also the 1.0A_REL it goes to the boot menu fine,
after that any option tried on the menu you hear the cd drive wind down
and the computer shuts off. With the next to last option in the menu,
can't remember the option number, I can get a prompt, but anything I
have entered has also shutdown the computer. The cd's all boot fine on
all my other systems. It has an Athlon XP-M 3000+ 1.6GHz. Any info
needed I will try to supply. Any suggestions on getting past the boot menu?
