I am trying to install Ubuntu on an old compaq to use as a server.

My problem is that this compaq is evil, and I can't change the boot order to boot from the CD Drive.

From a windows 98 boot disk I can browse the CD.

What should I do to initiate the installation? Which file should I run?

Thanks a lot. :0)
