Burn as iso, and it should do the extraction and burn the cd correctly for you. Also its always best to check your cdr's with md5sums as well, to see if they match up with the site's image you downloaded from. Regards. |
oh thanks ill do that iso thing
one question what is at md5sums? thanks tricky kid |
correct me if I'm wrong but md5sums is an executabe which checks the validity of what's on your installation disk.
You should be able to download it from the site that you downloaded the iso file from. Also if the iso image burns as one big file you've done something wrong. If this is the case download iso recorder for windows. I'm sure that theres a way to do this in Linux also. I don't know how to go about doing that though. |
oh thanks soulful93
ill see if i can get that |
