Did you alter the name when you saved the file?  What did you use to
download?

This is an install CD.

> 5.0-RELEASE-i386-disc2     .... 266MB

This is add-on programs.

> 5.0-RELEASE-i386-miniinst  .... 220MB

This is a bare-bones minimal install (smallest download possible)

If you already have the -disc1, you don't really need the miniinst.

What program do you use to control your CD ROM?  Make sure you
burn the files as "images" and not as files.

It's available in other languages if English isn't the easiest for you.
