Dont uncompress the ISO, it will not work. Burn the ISO as a cd image. I am not sure how to do this in nero, but I am sure there is an option to burn a "cd image"

Oh right, Sorry, Yeah, my friend DL'ed it for me, then we had to put it in a compressed folder to get it on a CD, I just extracted the ISO from the folder, is all...

Then I burned the image using nero, I hope it's worked.

So I just stick the CD with the ISO in the computer and boot it from the CD?

After burning the ISO image to the CD, the CD has a load of folders and files on there, that's right isn't it?

I can see .disk, dists, doc, install, isolinux, pics, pool and preseed.

Should be alright!

Which one do I select?

Install in Text Mode
OEM Install (For Manufacturers)
Install a Command Line System
Install an LTSP Server

It doesn't come up with the Live CD, You know where I can try it before installing?

I'm guessing OEM?
