Unable To Boot From a Fedora Core 6 DVD Disk

[Jeffrey D. Yuille]

Hello,

    I was able to use a Fedora Core 6 DVD disk that I created and load 
it into a Windows laptop that belongs to a friend and found that it 
boots fine into Linux.  The problem sees to be with my own laptop. I 
already have Fedora Core 6 loaded on it.  The laptop is an IBM  ThinkPad 
T-30. I have an NEC-CD-RW/DVD+RW Drive which I bought recently for this 
laptop.  However, whenever I put the disk into my drive to boot from it, 
it only boots to the hard drive. Would this have anything to do with 
Anaconda? I already have changed the bios settings that would allow the 
laptop to boot from the cd-drive. Has anyone else had this problem and 
if so, how do I correct it?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
