Can't boot fedora

Sorry, what do you mean? CheapBytes sent me the four disks of FC3, but not 
the boot CDs, or the RescueCD, so I burned the Boot.iso image (from 
ftp.linus-speakup.org) to a CD and booted from it, Disk 1 (that CheapBytes 
sent) wouldn't boot, but it said in the instalation guide (from 
linux-speakup.org) that it didn't usually anyway.

Which CD should I use to boot?

Cheers mate,

Chris Norman
