First things first.do you have high speed internet like DSL? If
not, don't even think of of downloading
Mandrake. It takes many many hours at ordinary modem speeds.

No, the ISO images are a special kind of file. They contain all of the
data and directory structure needed to write a whole CD. That's why the
files are usually bigger than a CD will hold. You will need to find
where it says 'create CD from iso image' in your CD burner software and
choose
Go to:
http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/ftp.php3
Assuming you are using an Athlon or a Pentium, click on Mandrake 9.0/i586 ISO
Image. Choose a mirror closest to you and then download:
README
md5sums.90
Mandrake90-cd1-inst.i586.iso
bootable then?
Many thanks again,
Mike
