I went to the redhat website but they have the distribution in the directory tree format. I don't want to download a bunch of small files, in fact I don't even know if that'll work. Is there any place I can can grab the image, burn it to CD and be done with it?

Yes, if you want any of the default applications (desktop, editors, etc. etc. ) I have no idea which options you'd have to de-select to not require the other discs.

RedHat is discontinuing their RH ditribution. I recommend moving to something else.

Fedora is kind of the replacement. But no suggestions from me. I like several, and use even more.

Ok, let me tell you guys a reason why I'm installing linux and maybe you'll be able to give some ideas. Because of my position change I get to use AIX and Solaris a lot. I wanted to get more comfortable with Unix platforms by installing linux distro at home and using it once in a while.

Don't forget NetBSD, OpenBSD, DragonflyBSD, EkkoBSD, and of course Solaris x86 (which was previously SunOS (a BSD I believe) made my Sun Microsoft systems, founded by the Bill in BSD). ;)

The option to burn iso files is usually under File. It is typically labeled something like "Burn cd from image." I don't know why, but ez cd creator defaults to .cif or something, just change that to .iso to find your file.
