if you have saved these ISO images as "files" on a CD-ROM, there is
something wrong here. These are meant to be written as "raw images"
each on a separate CD-ROM disk.
Most CD-burning software has two modes:
* One that lets you select files from a disk directory, and burn these
files as a collection of *files* on a CD-ROM disk.
* One that lets you burn a CD-ROM disk *image* as an "image".
You have to use the second mode, and burn 6.1-RELEASE-i386-disc1.iso on
a disk of its own. Then 6.1-RELEASE-i386-disc2.iso on a second disk.
After you have done these two steps, you can insert the first disk in a
CD-ROM drive, and you will see the _contents_ of the CD-ROM disk :)
