I have an HP desktop machine. It has a CD drive. I have gone into the Boot menu by pressing F10. I set the machine to boot from the CD ROM. I put the ISO disc with Trisquel into the CD/DVD drive and turn on the machine. When it starts it doesn't load from the disc. It loads the other OS. When I get to the log in screen I just select reboot and the machine restarts and I keep getting the same result.

I need somebody who knows about BIOS stuff to help me to select the proper setting to get the disc to load.

I can leave the disc in the drive and the other OS reads it and I can display all of the files on the disc. If there is a way to load the disc while it is running in the other OS then tell me how to do that.

The other OS is Bodhi Linux. I want to try a couple of distributions and that is one of them. Since it has a terminal command box you can instruct me with commands to load the Trisquel OS while in Bodhi.

I didn't like Bodhi as much as I thought I would. I couldn't find any way to get to the CD/DVD drive to eject the disc. I also didn't see a screen resolution selector. Maybe those things are there somewhere but they weren't anyplace I could find. They were easy to find in Ubuntu.

I eagerly await help to get Trisquel working.
