DELL Inspiron 530N

Greetings:
I have just received a Dell Inspiron 530N pre-installed with Ubuntu. I am now trying to figure out how to install debian on it. When I try to boot my Debian LiveCD (20070716-07:09) I am getting an error message similar to :
*"can't access tty; job control turned off"
*does anyone have a clue what this means?

Any help you can give me I would appreciate.
Thanks
Mike
