I'm trying to install LL2.2 on my 10 year old laptop running XP. The problem is that the dvd/cd driver in XP is corrupt and nothing can get it it working. So I have tried install using a USB flash drive. The BIOS is set up to boot from 'removable device' but everytime I start up up it just goes and reloads XP!
Is there a way to get LL2.2 to install on this laptop by running it from within Windows or has anyone any idea how to overcome this issue?
thanks
