As a relative novice I downloaded the 5 cds for 10 RC1. How do I make the first iso bootable ( or is that a silly question ? ). What I have is 5 discs each with an iso burned directly to it. Unfortunately they were burned in xp ( my linux laptop died and I don't want to put 9.1 on to the replacement ).
TIA
F The CD's need to burned with special "ISO" option.
Look at the cd's, if there is a single file called xxxx.iso then you burned them wrong. If there are many many files then you burned them correctly...

The *.ISO desigantion is an 'image' tag. In most Windows CD/DVD burning software programs there should be the option to burn from an image or image file. This is where the *.iso comes in. You need to select that file and burn this to disk. It sounds complicated but it is really very easy. What software are you using? It's possible that somebody here also uses similar and can give you more detailed instructions. If it's Nero then I should be able to help and it's very, very easy in Nero by the way :-) -- ============================================== I am only human, please forgive me if I make a mistake it is not deliberate. ============================================== Take care.
