Trying to burn Linux ISO files.. How?

I downloaded the 6 RedHat Linux 7.3 files from Redhats FTP site. Now i have 5 ISO files and 1 regular file and i don't know how to burn them onto a CD. I have Nero but everything i tried i wound up copying the file on the CD and not extracting the contents to the CD.

Can someone help!?

Google Search found it.


4.2. Instructions using Nero (Ahead Software)

Insert a blank CD into the CD writer.

Launch Nero.

In the File menu, select "Burn CD image".

Choose as file type: all files (*.*), since Nero expects files with the NRG suffix.

Select the ISO image file.

You will see a dialog box asking if you want to supply detailed image parameters. Enter the following parameters:


Type of image: Data Mode 1

Block size: 2048 bytes per sector

File precursor and image trailer: 0 length

No scrambled and no Swapped.

Click on "burn". If the program complains that there are errors in the image file, click on the button "Ignore" and launch the burning.

From the Nero window;
Open the following menu entry: File -> Burn CD image.
Now set the type of file: All files (*.*)
Now select the LinuxISO image file to be burned.
Now you will be informed that Nero does not recognize the format of the image file. Please confirm this dialog.
In the dialog which then appears, set the following parameters.
Type of image: Data Mode 1

Block size: 2048 Bytes
File precursor and length of the image trailer: 0 Bytes
no Scrambled and no Swapped
Click on OK, then Burn.




Use the following instructions for newer versions of Nero ( Contributed by Anthony P. )

Start Nero
Choose the menu command "File"->"Burn Image"
An "Open" file dialog box appears with the following image types supported (*.nrg, *.iso, *.cue)
Select your download LinuxISO file and click Open
The "Write CD" dialog box appears with several tabs (Info, Foreign image, Misc, Burn).
Click the 'Burn' Tab
Confirm that 'Write' and 'Finalize' are selected
Click on "Write". Watch it burn.
