You are right Eric but some on this list said the .iso was what I need. I burned them on a Sony using BHA Gold software and the 'data' option. The CD burner won't convert it to real files. Is there a way to do it (convert to useable files) on the hard disk? I can't understand why Red Hat can't use an ordinary ZIP type files for this stuff. They'll do anything to complicate it. TIA for any help.
