Live CD fails to load
« on: December 06, 2010, 12:39:28 PM »
Having had nothing but satisfactory experiences with PCLOS over 2 or 3 years, I'm really puzzled by my failure to load the KDE version of 2010.11.

After downloading and verifying the transfer of the .ISO file, when I reboot with the CD-ROM, I get nothing but a command line interface.

I've downloaded the file 3 times, with the same result each time.

My computer is in no way unusual and has run previous versions of PCLOS without problems.

Can anyone suggest a solution, please ?
