I'm not completly sure which version i use i think it's version 3.8.2 english. I guess i just give an enter as boot command.. but you probably mean something else but i don't really know what you mean...

I didn't check these pages out in particular but i've googled a couple of times which led me to this site.

On the error messages: It doesnt give any error message after loading usb devices etc. It detects pcmcia slot and when it tries to load drivers for it the vaio just freezes, In the mean time i've tried the disc on another computer and it worked there... however i can't acces internet.. it says that there isnt any network card. So i figure i have to get linux drivers for my nic.

And could you reccommend me a site where i can ask some more general linux question because i have the idea that there a lot of different types and i do not know which suites my wishes the best.
