The file you've downloaded is a one-on-one mirror of a CD image. That means, don't drag-or-drop it or you'll end up with a file called 4.6-install.iso on your CD instead of the directory layout you expect(*). Tell your software to treat the file as an ISO image and you'll end up with the directory layout you expect. (*) Don't laugh, already two people I know have had this happen to them.
