        I have a DVD with F 33 Live, in the drawer of an oldish machine.
I can't get it to boot from the DVD.

        It was originally a System 76, which came with Ubuntu. I had to
get help to switch it to Fedora, but it's been OK till now. (I've been
doing system upgrades with dnf; but that doesn't work any more.

        The first display on boot says American Megatrends, copyright
2015.

        This is the machine, discussed here in a thread beginning October
30, about a transaction test error. The conclusion was that I had
allocated space badly in F 32, and might as well install F 33 from
scratch. That's what I'm trying to do.

        I've been running Fedora since it came out; if I can get this
thing to boot from the live DVD, I ought to be able to install it to the
hard drive. But the boot options are innumerable -- most of them
apparently not connected with the BIOS, if there still is one.

        Is there hope? What info do I need to post??
