ok, not new but is for me


I cant seem to figure out how to burn redhat 9 and make it install.

boot disket works but when it calls for cd it can never find them.

is there anyone out there that can explain this in detail to me. or tute that will walk me step by step through it????

all support i have found on this matter is not to understandable for myself, including redhats rhetoric about how to burn the copy.

which is , im sure not the total tale because the total tale cost's money, lol----help 9 cd's and counting---lol

Whenever you burn the cd, take a look at it, there should be lots of files on it, if you see only one, then you are burning them wrong. You must use "Burn CD Image" option in your CD Burner software.

I am not sure, but I think the files should be arranged just like these here, only, spread out on 3 or more CDs.
