Acturly it is very old computer (I got it for free from my company). I have never used Linux before (this is why I am installing it on a very old computer - I just want to try it), so how can I boot "linux with kernel option 'acpi=off'" please?

I cannot start Linux so how can I get into "Grub prompt"?
When bios boots, just after bios POST, grub shows on Your screen. press anything if no bar bat all, it will show You available boot options (usually one). Follow instructions from first post.
