Installing Trisquel

Does Trisquel usually install without problems? I have copied the download to disc twice now. On this machine, where I DO NOT want to destroy the gnewsense operating system, the first disc loads the installer but that won't respond to anything but the arrow keys - and they caused my hard drive to go berserk, so I shut it down rapidly. On my other PC, which runs Puppy Linux quite happily, the disc is just spat out of the reader without doing anything.
The second disc loads into the 'Puppy' PC and the installer responds to the function keys by showing lists of options that I don't want but it won't do anything else. I won't risk putting it or anything else on this machine until I can be confident it won't corrupt anything.
Am I missing something here? I have plenty of memory and hard drive space on both PCs.
As long as you don't overwrite any of the existing operating system partition.
I've never experienced issues when installing Trisquel.
Are you using the text-mode install or the graphical one?
The text-mode install, doesn't use a mouse.
Sounds quite strange all right. I've had troubles and smooth sailing but never like that.
Did you see if the checksum of the ISO matches after downloading?
Getting off Windows this is a new area for me. Like the layout of Trisquel.
Have 2 issues I've run into.
The first one is the install stopped at the where are you screen.
Sceond one System Settings/Failed to execute child process "gnome-control-center" (Input/output error)
Any ideas
Thanks
Terry
The installer should offer you an option to check its integrity. An I/O error suggests there is a problem with the install media.
The fix is to redo the install media, if you're burning a CD, use a slow speed. I guess it could also be a problem with the drive but that's less common.
It's good to explore new frontiers, especially this one! :)
