There is a document filed alongside the ISO images on most web mirrors, called README-BURNING-ISOS.txt -- you might want to read it for more information: http://mirror.hiwaay.net/pub/fedora/linux/core/6/i386/iso/README-BURNING-ISOS-en_US.txt This comes straight from the wiki version: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Drafts/BurningDiscs -- Paul W. Frields, RHCE http://paul.frields.org/ gpg fingerprint: 3DA6 A0AC 6D58 FEC4 0233 5906 ACDB C937 BD11 3717 Fedora Project Board: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Board Fedora Docs Project: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DocsProject
