7.1 does boot, is your boot order correct?

How did you write the cd? If you explore the cd on a windows machine, what do you find there? Only the iso? The iso has to be extracted on your cd.

silly question... You didn't download the SRPMS cd ? That won't boot for sure.

And have you checked the md5sum ?

I HAVE CHECKED THE MD5 CHECKSUM. IT'S MATCHING. i HAVE DOWNLOADED THE srpms iso. WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE IN THE TWO ISO'S . WILL BOTH OF THEM BOOT.?

That's not the ISO cd that you need. You need the RPMS ISO. SRPMS stands for SOURCE RPMS.

With prgrams like IsoBuster (and prob. more) you can verify if there is a bootsector, even before you burn it to disc.
Maybe it's better to place the Source related subjects, including iso's in a seperate directory called "sources" to prevent this kind of trouble. It's not the 1st time somebody makes this mistake.
