Boot from Grub

I would burn an iso to a jump drive but I don't have one and we're forty million miles from the nearest place that carries any!  Well, slight exaggeration but probably 20 miles or so to the nearest place to have one.  Will probably have to wait until I can get to town.

Thanks, anyway. 

Is it a drive with just a slot for the CD/DVD disk? If so, power off, fix a small piece of double sided sticky tape to an old CD, partly insert over the 'stuck' CD so the tape grips the CD and try pulling the old CD. The stuck CD might then come out with the old CD. That has worked for me in the past, releasing the jammed cone which grips the CD through its centre hole.
If that doesn't work, have you tried holding down the drive eject button whilst powering up?
Sorry, I can't offer any other suggestions.
1) Lenovo T520 i5 LL3.8 8GB ram, fast & stable
2) Medion P4 32bit LL3.8 1GB ram, quite fast & stable
3) eeePC 901 32bit LL3.8 1GB ram, fast & stable
4) eeePC 701 32bit LL3.8 1GB ram, slower & stable but small and light enough to travel with me to New Zealand when visiting family in Blenheim.
