hi, all
i have the following problem:
i have an old comp (Pentium 90 MHz, about 40 Megs of RAM)
i want to install Linux on that.. from the CD (which is bootable)
the problem is it's an old comp, and the only devices this comp can boot up
from are either hard drive or floppy...
as OS on the comp i have Linux Caldera Lite, but i wasn't able to mount
CD-rom on there... have no idea why though.

any solutions? ideas? e-mail me or reply to newsgroup

thanx a lot in advance
