If I may make so bold, the ideal situtation is to find a pal with a
couple of years (or more) running Linux system(s).  In all likelihood an
old hand would look at the startup messages, say[0] "Oh, you've forgotten
to winkel the frozzbag!" and your problem would be gone.

The best place to find Linux help is your local Linux User Group (LUG).
You can find a fairly comprehensive list at http://www.linux.org/groups/

In particular, try to get to an InstallFest, where a whole bunch of
newbies and experts get together in an effort to get Linux up and
running on as many machines in as short a time as possible.

[0] Of course, he might say "Oh, you can't use that mobo and disk
together under Linux!" and you'll have to swap in some different
hardware.  So it goes.
