It's a bit-by-bit image of a CD. CD-burning software will let you make a CD from it, which should (if your hardware/BIOS supports it) be directly bootable. So you get the ISO, burn a CD and boot it, dropping you straight into the install with all the bits and pieces you should need available locally. -- jan grant, ILRT, University of Bristol. http://www.ilrt.bris.ac.uk/ Tel +44(0)117 9287163 Fax +44 (0)117 9287112 RFC822 jan.grant@bris.ac.uk If it's broken really badly - don't fix it either.
