This was a fail to boot.

It actually gets to:
Booting from CD:
...
then reboots the pc
goes through BIOS screen
Booting from CD:
...
over and over.

Next I'll try the 9atom.iso.bz2

Foolish newbie question: I am supposed to unzip the image before
burning it, right?  Just making sure I'm not doing something and not
letting you know.  I sure that's the procedure, just being thorough.

Thanks,
Terry.

pap: If you can give me a link to get 9front, I'll try that to.  Thanks.

I did, just wanted to make sure... I'm also writing the discs using
DAO. Correct?
I'm more or less following the same procedure I would for a linux distro.

I am not pap (nor a suitable alternative), but you can get 9front at http://9front.org . Also has nice links to our wiki.
