Hi. New guy here. *Waves*
The thing is;
I have a laptop; Toshiba Satellite Pro 4600. Trying to install linux, but the thing refuses to boot the linux CD. I have wiped the HDD clean, nothing on it. When I try to boot the CD, all it says is "Insert system disk, press any key when ready".
Is there any way to install linux on this computer...?

Or am I stuck with windows?

It does recognize Windows CDs.
