College Linux problem

well since i've been having trouble installing peanut linux i decided to try College Linux, but the cd won't boot! I downloaded the .iso twice to make sure as well. I put the cd in my other windows machine to see what the files looked like and it just showed 3 folders with stuff inside...so no other files in the root of the cd, like for booting/autorun stuff. does anyone know if the .iso is supposed to just put those 3 folders and nothing else in there? Thanks in advance!

While this isnt a "common" problem with CL. It is common enough for people to have found a work around.
Basically what you'll need to do is use Smart Boot manager to boot the CL install cd.
Links and instructions are here http://members.optusnet.com.au/atar/sboot.htm
If it works for you thanks Craigus over at the College Linux forums and let him know it worked.
