Foxconn r10-s4 boot problem

[dkb_100]

Hello,

I just put together an R10-S4 with 2GB RAM MEM 2G|GSK F2-6400CL5S-2GBNT R, 500GB SATA HD, and Lightscribe DVD. When I turn on, the DVD searches and tells me to put boot media in despite there being a Mandriva linux iso bootable disc in it. I have checked the bios and it is seeing my HD and DVD and boot order is DVD first. I would be grateful for your advice.
Thank you.

Sounds like everything is working fine except the DVD. Are you sure the disk is bootable? Have you confirmed it in another computer?

Dear Rolli, You are correct - the disc was corrupted and would not boot. I put in another Mandriva boot disc and away it went!
Thanks.
