[olug] linux 7.2

[Calvin W. Kline, jr.]

Use your favorite CD Writing utility to "write an image" (the ISO image)
to the CD.  Do not write the iso file, but rather the image contained
with the iso file.  Most utilities have a "create image" and a "write
image" selection.  Choose "write image" and then select the iso file
containing the RedHat image to write to the CD.  Five image file, I
think, for five CDs:  two boot, two SRPM, one documentation.
