Darwin/PearPC issues

Has anyone else tried playing with Darwin....
I downloaded the Darwin iso from Apple's site and burnt a CD.
When I boot from the CD on my home PC it issues a "Kernel Trap"
error message and stops there.
Has anyone had a similar experience and found a solution for it?
Thanks

have you tried mounting the iso with daemon tools, clonecd, or alchohol 120%? Maybe it just didnt write the cd properly?

Thanks po10cy, but I am pretty sure it isn't that: I tested the CD on my work machine and it has no problem booting...I cannot however go installing other operating systems on it...

Maybe its hardware related, maybe...
or Apple doesnt like your PC parts?

I'm guessing that it has a problem with a device
in my home system
[700MHz Duron, 512Mb RAM, Gigabyte GA-7ZX mobo, 80Gb Seagate Barracuda HDD, Soundblaster Live, Samsung DVD-ROM, Samsung
CD-RW, etc]
Seeing as it does work with our 1.8GHz Celery Processor-based el-cheapo machines at work...
Hmmm....looks like I've answered my own question.....
now if only I could find the fix on Apples' site....
