here is what dmesg says. I think this means the drive is bad. I don't
think the live cd I have has grub but rather its predecessor, lilo.
Where should I go to download a current version of ubuntuu that will
run on a cd? I don't have a dvd burner. heck, i don't even know if
this cdrom is a dvd player!
