Hi,
I got a K3 Demo unit and I am trying to make it a useful real K3 and came to this thread and found what I was looking for

But I have no success in starting the process

Both USB and DVD boot give errors and the process can not be started.
The DVD gives corrupted DVD and error messages are running down my screen at a mad speed.... and I tried K3 and the combined K-3-4-5 image and nothing - it is the same.
USB says that something is changed or missing in the boot folder and stops in the very beginning, but I have only copied the boot.iso there!
And I see that very soon others have succeeded!
There must be something wrong with my hardware or software, but I do not know what

I am using Win XP and using Nero to make bootable DVDs and I have A-DATA 2GB USB stick and write the image of the linux partition with Win32DiskImager and then copy the boot.iso to the boot folder.
I was very heppy how easy it was described, but yet I mark only failures so far.

Please, please, please help
