    Booting Linux from Disc

    ok I got the knoppix Iso and burned the image to a disc....now its all there...but how do I boot it up..when I put the disc in an index screen comes up (I downloaded the english version however the page comes up in another language except for the knoppix title) I was wondering how do I boot it and start it up...and then how do I go back to windows xp?

    go into your bios setting and change it so that it will boot of a Cd of change it so that the CD has the highest boot priority. then reboot.

    P.S Linux Sucks Except Red Hat which is a wee bit betta

    Yeah, like Mr. Mainstream said, change your first boot device to your cd rom, leave the cd in, and reboot, it will boot to linux.

    When you want to boot to xp, remove the cd, and reboot.
