[RESOLVED] centos 6.2 live wont boot

Hi

Trying ot recover a Dell gx620 that has died. It has winxp loaded and wont boot suggesting that the r option be used when booted from the installation cd.

Booting from the centos6.2 live cd gets the following

uncompression error
Kernel panic – not syncing:  VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown -block(0,0)


A very similar error is output by puppy linux lupu.

Anyone have an idea what is causing this error??

Thanks for your time
JIm
