how to burn .iso

**Dswissmiss** · 09-24-2002, 05:49 AM

I was wondering how I should go about burning .iso's onto a cd/r, and what linux programs you reccomend I use. I am currently using Mandrake 8.2. Also, is there anything I should be aware of as a newbie?

thank you

Either e-roaster or Xcdroast would be good to use. Both are very gui, and easy to understand.

damn thats a fast reply...thanx

I downloaded redhat 7.3 and a few other distros off linuxiso.org. When you click to download, you get download links for 3 install disks, and two for SRPMS's...do I have to download the SRPMS's too?

thank you

You dont need them, but if you plan on doing development with specific packages (like becoming a developer for ... Kmail for example) you can pick it off the cd at your leisure.)
