I think there's something you have to do to fool Easy CD to write an ISO
image. You can't mount the ISO on the hard drive and install that way I'm
afraid. You can copy all the contents to a directory on your HD and install
from the HD though. But if you're installing to the Same Hard drive, you
should use the CD instead.
I burn all my CD's in Linux using the CD-Writing HowTo. You can find it at:
http://linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/CD-Writing-HOWTO.html
Alternatively, you can download the floppy disk images and install via ftp.
If you have a Linux User group in your area, maybe ask one of them to burn
the CD for you.

One is in MegaBytes the other is in strait bytes. You're fine, don't worry.
