Re: Boot cd needed to install Fedora 4

It has multiple files as I have written them as an image cd... however, still it does not have the boot file on there.
what should be the first cd then? I have copied all the onces from redhat download:
FC4-i386-SRPMS-disc1.iso 06-Jun-2005 22:58 612M 
FC4-i386-SRPMS-disc2.iso 06-Jun-2005 22:59 612M 
FC4-i386-SRPMS-disc3.iso 06-Jun-2005 23:00 612M 
FC4-i386-SRPMS-disc4.iso 06-Jun-2005 23:01 612M

This is for a laptop of Acer, which has Centrino and Intel Pentium M processor...
can it even be ran on that? (I had troubles with FC2, so that is why I want 4)

thank you
Inge

If the CDs contain only a single .iso file then you did not use the
proper burning procedure.
This url provides some pointers for using Linux applications:
http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-9-Manual/getting-started-guide/s1-disks-cdrw.html

A Google search for "how to burn .iso files" gave this this link for
Windows: http://www.petri.co.il/how_to_write_iso_files_to_cd.htm

Hope that helps.
