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.

Well, hell. Okay, I'll reburn the CDs. Thanks.
And thanks to everyone with the BIOS info. I checked
the documentation online, and now I have an even
better idea of how my computer works.

Hi, everyone. My desktop has Red Hat 9 currently

simply
upgrade). I downloaded the 4 disc iso files and

them to CDs (after checking the md5sums). The CD

Here's your problem, right here (above). When you
view the
contents of the CDROM after doing the burn you
SHOULD NOT
see any ISO files. You SHOULD see a filesystem
containing a
number of files and subdirectories.
If all you see is a single file, the ISO file,
you've not done
it right. The ISO is an image of a CDROM. YOu need
to tell your
CD burning tools to "create cd from image".
Exactly
how you do
that depends on which software you are using.

just
started up Red Hat 9 again, rather than the
Fedora
Core installation. Just to check, I loaded disc
1
into
my notebook (a Dell running on Windows XP) and
rebooted, and again, the Fedora Core
installation
didn't begin.
Any suggestions? (Keeping in mind that I'm
pretty
much
a newbie when it comes to Linux, but I have some
O'Reilly books and I'm more than willing to do
the
work to learn more. So I may be confused by
highly
technical answers, but I don't want to remain
ignorant.)

Never tried that way, I have used xcdroast and k3b, k3b is my
preference. I will say that I have found that 16X works the best
even though my CDRW is capable of 48x.
