At what stage of installation error occured? What messages you got?

I am using FC4 (kernel 2.6.15-1.1833_FC4), the vmware is vmware workstation 4.5.2. I created a virtual mechine (chose Other) and set boot sequence as CD, floppy, HHD. when I click on 'start the new virtual mechine'. is pops pup a message 'enter any key to boot from CD'. there was not response when hit a key. just hang there for hours. I had to power off it.
I downlowded the install cd at
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/reactos/reactos0.2.9-REL-iso.zip?download
This cd iso is right after mount
as
mount -t iso9660 -o loop=/dev/loop1 reactos0.2.9-REL-iso /mnt/CD or burnt it on CD and mounted.
