Re: [newbie] 7.02 ISO image question
Dear Philomena; You probably know this already, but whichever CD burning software you use, should give you an option to " Create CD from Image File". Your Mandrake 7.02 ISO file being just that, this oughta be a Snap! Look for an option in your software to create from image file. If it's there, but the file extension is wrong, see if there's a drop-down box and look for the *.iso file extension. If it's there, select it, and point to your 7.02 file. If you can't find it, talk to your friends about getting Adaptec's EZ CD Creator. It's the most popular program for doing this sort of thing. Hope this helps!

I then tried copying the file to a CD. The CD recording software (called just!Data) on my PC seems to have just copied the .iso file onto the CD - there is no directory structure or anything. Should the recording software have taken care of that, or I am missing a step or ten ? Thanks, Phil
Re: [newbie] 7.02 ISO image question
Dan, I looked all over and the sw that was included with the pc doesn't have options like that - it looks like its a very reduced functionality OEM package or something. Copies files fine, but thats about it. I looked all over for any shareware but couldn't find any. So, I bit the bullet and am now waiting for EZ CD to be delivered.

Re: [newbie] 7.02 ISO image question
Doh !! I hate waiting! At least for some things! What connection speed do you have for the Internet?? Perhaps I can "Rush Deliver" your S/W??

Should the recording software have taken care of that, or I am missing a step or ten ? Do you have one of the Sony CD-RW drives in a commercially integrated package? I've seen just one of those (a Compaq), and it included the just!data software. I couldn't convince it to correctly restore the image. As you state, it will copy the ISO file to a single *BIG* file on the CD, but it won't restore the image. The EZ_somethingorother software which came with the HP in our office works fine, but I don't know of a place to download it. (Obviously they're trying to sell CD-RW drives, not give away software.) Perhaps someone knows of a shareware or free writing tool. I doubt rawwrite is going to work. MB
