hi. i have toshiba tecra ez6612 and i want to boot from external cdROM, need help plz.

Solution
The internal DVD drive should boot a cd without issue.

But to answer your question, when you boot up, look for and press the F-key that corresponds to 'Boot Options' or "Select boot drive" and press it.
This will bring up a list of bootable drives the Bios has detected, select the drive you need.
