Hi Flupke,

I will try your suggestion tomorrow. I wasn't sure if I burned the .iso
image, if all I would get is a very large and unusable file whose name
ended in .iso. You are saying that cdrecord will figure out that this is
actually an image of a cd?

I can't understand why you don't want to use cdrecord tu burn your image.
All you have to do is "cdrecord -scanbus", to see the number of your
burner, then make a "cdrecord -v -eject dev=0,0,0 img.iso".

I already tried use gcombust or others GUI tools to burn, and always had
problems with them.

[newbie] I downloaded the .iso files...now what?

2000-09-07 Thread WarmFuzzy

Hello,

Which program are y'all using to turn the .iso file into a Linux
distribution? I mean besides cdrecord and mkisofs. I have XCDroast,
Kisocd and gtoaster. None of them seem to know about an image that ends 
in .iso. My only experience so far is to wind up with an unusable CD
with one huge file on it that ends in .iso. I can do it fine on my NT
machine at work using Adaptech Easy CD Creator.
