Laptops :: Can't install DSL, CD does not boot

I have a similar problem on one of my notebooks:

It boots from the DSL CD and stopps with a penguin in the top left corner and a blinking cursor

The same CD works fine in other PCs and this notebooks boots perfectly from an original Knoppix CD but not with DSL.

What could be the problem?

Christian

thanks for the suggestion to use the syslinux version!
I was having the same problem...CD wouldn't boot at all.
I grabbed syslinux, burned it and it works perfectly.

btw: I am using a Samsung SenS 650 notebook.
pentium 233 MMX
64mb ram

Had absolutely no trouble at all configuring for shared internet via LAN, and this poor old beast runs all the games/apps/etc extremely fast, even when running strictly from the CD.

Think I'm gonna try a dual-boot setup with win98 and see how that goes.

Thanks a million, you guys!!!
