Todd, I checked out Alastair's "UK" FTP link and the FTP site directory lists the ISO's as rc3's. I haven't downloaded them as yet. Are you saying that they came down that way, but eroaster recognized the contents of each ISO as being "the real thing"? Alastair, I tried the PCLinux On-line

Yeah, I have just downloaded the 2/3 isos, but I have bad news for those using an old CD writer like me (HP 8100i): The isos are too big for the writers. I have used 700MB CD's, but have never been able to burn over the 690MB's. The first 2 images contain data that is around the 693 and 699

I have an HP8100+ (8100i) writer . I have not d/l or tried to burn these ISOs yet, so I don't have results to compare. After reading your post, I checked the HP website and found that the 'claim' to support 80 min (700MB) CDs, but add the disclaimer that they recommend using HP 80 min CDs.

Ok, this seems good news. But the thing is this. I have looked at the man page already, but I don't understand much of it :-( There are some *.img files in the images directory, but I presume these are for floppies. Then there are some files in isolinux, but how and what I would not know.
