No errors. It just won't access the cd and says
FATAL: Could not read from the boot medium. System
halted.'
then I can't even type anything into the VM. Ohhhh llook at that! There is
a devices menu and in that a CD/DVD choice. ANd then I go in there and it
seem the virtual one is chosen as the default. SO I switch it and I go.
Thanks for all your help. I don't know if I would have figured it out so
quickly without your help.
