But when I insert the CD into another laptop to install this distro onto that laptops's hard drive I get to the main installation menu, which offers me the option to install using the Command Line or the GUI. I chose the GUI (since I suck at the comand line...for NOW!) and the first selection after I chose the GUI is to choose my language, then to set the keyboard, but immediately after those it asks me to select the type of CD drive (SCSI or "Other") I have gone through the ENTIRE list of offerings in those lists but it doesn't recognize ANY of them.....can someone please tell me what the proper procedure is to get me past this point?....the laptop in question is a Lenovo T-420 with 4 GB of memory..a 320 HDD...and an internal / modular CD-ROM drive.... 

name the distro in question.
