So my friend told me that I should try out Ubuntu on my iBook G4 (1.2 ghz, 768 megs ram, etc.) so I decide to try the Live CD. Now I need to figure out how to run it. I burned the CD and everything, but when I start up my computer, it's still in Mac OSX... Help?

there are to possible problems

make sure you burned the iso image to the cd, rather than just putting the iso as a file on the cd.

try holding down 'C' while you boot.
