[CS-FSLUG] Adding a partition for Linux

[Tim Young]

That hardware is a little old, and could be low on features. Some CDRoms 
in that age group were not able to boot, though most of them can.

Can you go to your device manager and pull up your model of CDRom? We 
can usually look it up from those specifications.

Also, were you ever able to get into your BIOS to look at the 
boot-order? I have seen different sites that say the keys to press 
during the E-Machine message at bootup are one of: ESC, F1, Tab, F2, or F10
