Ok i know first off Linspire is the pansy Linux but hey i am a pansy when it comes to linux so it works

I just wanted to try it on my lappy i put the cd in and it will not get to the install screen it starts loading off the cd then i get errors, I put in my desktop Boom no problem But the lappy same error, Talk about agrivating my guess it has to do with the cd rom in the lappy not staying steady enough for the installation and it causes errors, any way to install it off my 1 gig flash drive? ( doesnt vary in speed like a cd rom )

    did you check the md5sum of the .iso before you burned it? (It makes sure that the image is downloaded exactly as it should have).

    The best place to find this sort of thing out is the linspire website. It should have instructions for booting/installing different ways.
