Re: DVD not booting

Here’s what I found so far…

I tried the iso image in 3 other PCs and it worked fine.  I don’t think there’s a problem with the iso DVD image I burned.  All the drives I used were DVD RW DL.  The DVD drive on the PC with the issue is an IDE drive the others are SATA.  I was able to boot Windows XP, Vista and 7 installs with no problem.  In addition to Windows all the Fedora Desktop iso images work, just the 32-bit i386 DVD install iso is not booting.  

I also found a old Fedora 12 32-bit install DVD and that worked.  I’m assuming the Fedora 16 iso installation DVD is not compatible with the EPoX 8K9A motherboard.  I got the motherboard back in 2003.

Can I install Fedora 12 and update to 16?

Two questions: first, if you look at the DVD with your File Manager, what do you see?  Second, what happens if you try to boot some other computer with that DVD?
