Hello All,
Thanks for your answers. I gather that all I do is copy the file 4.4-install.iso for example to the CD-ROM. SO when I load the cd-rom on to windows, I should be able to see only ONE file - 4.4-install.iso for example.

Q: I have the standard (mini edition) for 4.3. Under WIn NT I do a dir of F: (which is my CD rom drive containing 4.3 BSD. The output is as follows:

I got this CD-ROM from a local reseller who makes money by downloading Linux and BSD images from the NET and burining it on CD-ROM. 
How do I make the right copy?

I can't boot to FreeBSD and do the CD-burning. I am a novice.
Any leads would be appreciated.
With regards,
