    Hi,

    I have downloaded the .iso image of Sarge CD#1. Even though I have set
    the first boot device to boot from is my CD-Drive(in my BIOS setting).
    It is not booting from CD-Drive.

    I went to the ./install dir of this CD#1 and cannot see any files I
    can run to make it boot from the CD-Drive or how to start this CD#1 ?
    My CD-Drive is /dev/hdd

    Current running Woody and would like to migrate to Sarge.

    I tried apt-get dist-upgrade but my /usr partition is not big enough.
    So have to do a re-partition etc.

    So pls help ?
