Rajko, Thanks for the input. This describes my problem. When I go to explorer, I only see one file. That is the same on all 5 disk. Will I need to burn all 5 CDs again?

Hello I am new to the Linux world and I am attempting to load OPENSUSE on my PC. I have down loaded the ISO files and used an ISO burner to burn them to CD. I made the first CD bootable.
When I try to boot up on that CD, I get the message:
Unable to open DOS! Any key to retry.
The iso images contain all information necessary, including booting information. CD1 is bootable for newer computers, CD2 is bootable for older.
What does that mean and what do I need to do to install SUSE on my machine?
Just burn iso image. Can't be easier. To check is it OK, put disk in CDROM and look in explorer. If you see only one file ending with iso, your iso image burner doesn't work. If you see few directories and files like on FTP server, than it is probably OK. For instance Nero is good burning software. -- Regards, Rajko.
