Ubuntu

8.10 download does not boot from CD

Asked by scottamead84

Downloaded 8.10 iso and had to manually extract with 7-zip. No computer will boot from disc (created with Nero). Need to eliminate iso - too complicated. Just make all the files available.

It sounds like you didn't burn the CD correctly, directions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto
If you still have problem, make sure you check the md5sum against the correct hash, available on the UbuntuHashes page linked from the above webpage.

Can you help with this problem?
