Hi,

I have downloaded the .iso image of Sarge CD#1. Even though I have set
the first boot device to boot from is my CD-Drive(in my BIOS setting).
It is not booting from CD-Drive.

I went to the ./install dir of this CD#1 and cannot see any files I
can run to make it boot from the CD-Drive or how to start this CD#1 ?
My CD-Drive is /dev/hdd

Current running Woody and would like to migrate to Sarge.

I tried apt-get dist-upgrade but my /usr partition is not big enough.
So have to do a re-partition etc.

So  pls help ?

Do you have another machine you can test the CD with?

If you have an older CD-ROM drive, it might not be able to read/boot from a burned CD.

If you're lacking space in /usr, how is booting from a Sarge CD going to help? Are you planning on wiping/repartitioning/resizingpartitions/reinstalling, or what?

If you have lots of space elsewhere, you can move a subdirectory of /usr, such as /usr/local or /usr/X11 to that empty space, and create a symlink to it, like so:

# mv /usr/local /freespace
# ln -s /freespace /usr/local

This will free up some space on /usr.
