Okay, so I'm attempting to burn new CDs the right way. Now, I apologuze if this sounds stupid, but, does this seem right?: Using RH9's Nautilus, a window automatically opens up for the blank CD, labelled "burn:///"; I clicked and dragged the first disc iso over into the "burn" window; do I now click on "Write CD" and on "Target to write to" I click on "File Image"? I'm not seeing any other way to "create CD from image." Again, I apologize if this sounds really ignorant. This is the first time I've burned CDs using RH9. --- joshua neff <joshua_neff@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Well, hell. Okay, I'll reburn the CDs. Thanks. > > And thanks to everyone with the BIOS info.
