I just downloaded Damn Small Linux, and wrote it to a CD. I know there were no errors there. I rebooted my computer and put in the CD, and it like...froze at the file identification screen (second screen from windows start-up)

Help?

Of course.

Did you actually burn it to a cd, or did you just write it?
