Linux without sighted help

[Lorenzo Taylor]

If you have problems booting from a CD, try pressing the escape key a
few times shortly after you powerr on the computer. Some bios's will
allow you to select the boot device from a list by pressing the escape
key just before the system starts to boot. The CD-ROM device is usually
the second from the top, so you press escape, then down arrow, then
enter to start it booting from the CD. Note that YMMV, since not all
computers do this, but it's worth a try.

Live long and prosper,
Lorenzo
