Ubuntu Edgy is Slow on CD.

[nowindows terrencevak net]

Hello, all,
	I'm trying to run uUbuntu Edgy 6.10 from the CD, and everything is 
extremely slow.  If I go to the first console and type "orca", it just 
sits there forever and ever.  Same goes for pretty much anything else I 
try to do with it.  Is this a problem with the CD, the drive, both or just 
the way the system is?

Thanks,
Terrence
