That's what is so stgrange - I've burned CDs before logged in as a user
with no particular problems - The only difference I can think of is that
these are new CDs rated at a higher speed.  But that still doesn;t
explain the "why".

On the earlier subject - I was able to install Ubuntu with no problems
at all - it even recognized my Wireless PCMCIA card and connects to the
internet!

So I guess I'll play with (Debian) disguised as Ubuntu for a while.
