Hi everyone,
I can't find a pg_live mailing list, so hopefully someone here might
have some experience with this. I've tried burning the ISO twice now
with the exact same result. The checksum after downloading is fine,
and the burn completes without errors, but when I boot:
1) If I use the 'check CD' option, it tests everything and then
reports two failed checks.
2) If I go to start/install anyway, after a bit of loading, I get the
GUI with a window and a cursor. I can move the cursor around but
nothing whatsoever will respond to a mouse click in any way. Also,
the window has some icons and text in it, and the text below the icons
is fuzzy and has dotted colours on top of it. I can barely make out
that one of them is pgAdmin3. The keyboard lights are unresponsive as
well. When I press the power button on my machine, it beeps, but
won't shut down, so I have to hold it down to get it to shut off.
My specs are as follows:

Has anyone tried this out and had a similar experience?
