Making ISO Image from MDK Official

dolphans1 · 08-17-2004, 04:15 PM

Hey guys,

I downloaded the Mandrake 10.0 Official ISO Files and there are 4 files inside the folder on my desktop.

1- File is ISO File 711,488 KB - CD-1

2- Files is ISO File 711,752 KB - CD-3

3- File is ISO 711,714 KB - CD-2

4- File is MD5 File 1 KB (where do I place this one??)

Question:

Do I burn 4 CD's or just 3, and if just 3 where do I place that smaller MD5 1 KB file?

You only need to burn 3 cd's. Make sure you don't the ISO files to a data cd, as they are already complete CD images. Just use the Write Image or Burn Image option in your CD Burning software. The 4th file you have contains md5 checksums for the ISO files, that can be used to make sure they have downloaded correctly or burned correctly.

It's not needed other than for the integrity checks, and you can delete it safely.

Thank you sir for the quick response, like a good solider I waited for my proper instructions and orders before I set forth with my mission. Will report back if mission was a success or failure.
