Description
Hi,
I just received my disc of Parsix 2.0r0 (I ordered from OSDisc.com, hope some of the money went to you!). Upon boot, I get "unable to detect live media"; this same error happens on the Debian install CD, except it's when it is detecting the media in the installation process.

Hi,
Did you try the disk on another machine to make sure it works? If yes, did you get a chance to download and try Kev test-1 on your machine? I really appreciate if you do that. Thanks.
