    so I decided to try out ubuntu 7.04 and downloaded their live cd, I cant seem to get it to boot. I have switched my drive priority and such, but no success, I have even tried the install to a usb stick and tried boorting from that. both the disk and usb work on another computer but not on my w3j. any help would be appreciated

    hmn Are u sure you burned it right? should be "burn image to Disc". I tried the sabayon 3.3 live DVD and it worked fine. All I had to do is change the dvd drive as a priority to boot first in the bios.
