Try it in the directory which contains your actual downloaded .iso files. Also, there's no need to be doing this as root. It's better do to most operations as a normal user, and only use root when it's really needed. This practice helps protect against viruses, and it also helps keep you from accidentally shooting yourself in the foot. -- Matthew Miller mattdm@xxxxxxxxxx <http://www.mattdm.org/> Boston University Linux ------> <http://linux.bu.edu/>
