        Hi All,

        I am Rajeev. I have download centOS 5.1 i386 files for
installing Linux. I tried my ways but my DVD is not getting recognised
while booting. I have windows XP SP2 32-bit. Let me know the files that
need to be burned for installing centOS 5.1 i386.

Thats CD 1 through 6.  CD 1 is bootable.   You can use this set of 6
CDs to install, only the first one is absolutely required if you select
a 'minimum' install, otherwise the rest will be needed for various
packages.  

      CentOS-5.1-i386-bin-DVD.iso
      2007-Nov-25 03:31:05
      3.5G
      application/x-iso9660-image

this is the whole thing on one bootable DVD.     you can use this to
install the whole thing or any subset.

the .torrent files are for downloading via teh bittorrent protocol, by
themselves they are of no use.  the md5 and sha1 sum files can be used
for verifying the other files via the appropriate checksum utility.  
The LiveCD is a standalone bootable 'Live' boot that lets you try out
CentOS without actually installing it on your hard disk.
