So i downloaded Linux mint 17.1 Mate 32bit. (http://www.linuxmint.com/edition.php?id=173)

 

I have it on Disk with an external reader. It runs but it only gives me this screen:

post-45248-0-97470500-1435352898_thumb.j

 

If i click on "Start Linux mint", it just runs it off of the DVD. But i don't want to run it i want to INSTALL IT!! What am i doing wrong???

I'm trying to install it on an old ASUS netbook from like 6 years ago, which currently has XUbuntu.

You start it

you get to the desktop

you click install Linux Mint

 

 

Reboot into the DVD and do the Integrity Test to check the disk for defects.

 

Didn't read the post correctly. When you boot the installer into live mode, or the Start Option, you can install Linux Mint via a program that will have a shortcut on the desktop.

 

 

click start linux mint

then once inside it click install 

should be icon on desktop

try that

k thanks. Its running on like a celeron M so its just super slow..
