Using a livecd on an intel iMac

Question

I have a livecd that works on Windows. When I boot the Mac with it in and hold the option button, it shows the hard drive, a cd called "Windows" and a cd called "EFI boot". if I click on the Windows cd it says

1. [no text here]
2. [no text here either]

Select cd boot type:

and it doesn't allow me to input anything. If i click on EFI boot, it gives me a command prompt but I don't know what do do there. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

I'm not sure if this is exactly your problem, but the Ubuntu 12.10 QQ has ISO versions to mac computers. You can see them here:

• 64-bit Mac (AMD64) desktop image - Ubuntu 12.10

Try it! ;)
