[LINUX_Newbies] Re: 64-bit Linux issues

 

So far, I've just tried Kubuntu and Mint with KDE interface.

The error indication is simple: it will not boot into Live CD mode (and I've tried both with USB-connected DVD drive and with USB memory key, using two different USB creation programs--the same ones which work flawlessly with 32-bit versions of the same Linux variants. Instead, there are indications that the distro is apparently trying to load--for example, the increasing periods indicating that files are being read or created--but ultimately nothing more than that.
