okay, ive used windows my whole life, and last week i ws handed down one of the big crt imacs with the slot loading cd tray.
i canot figure anything on it out, like i cant get the internet to work with the osx
so i figured id try and put ubuntu on it (seems easier than osx)
on my other pc's i can toss the disc in, turn it on, and it will boot from the cd
on this mac it wont boot from the cd and there is no "hit f2 to enter setup" so i can change the boot order. i didnt get any books with this thing, only a osx9 reinstall disc, and my ubuntu disc is the mac one straight from ubuntu.
