Burning ISO Images
« on: July 19, 2005, 09:48:46 PM »

Several ways to burn an ISO image

All the CD-Writing software can burn an ISO image directly to a CD-R or CD-RW.

Important note: take care to download the ISO in binary mode (FTP). By default Netscape downloads the file in ASCII mode which corrupts the image. You can check the integrity of the ISO file with the md5 key (md5sum mandrake.iso under Linux), go to http://www.slavasoft.com and grab Fsum 2.51 if you are using Windows.

Please avoid downloading the ISO with a 56K modem line. If the download
fails you can use "Resume" which allows you to continue the download. It
works with ftp (reget), ncftp, CuteFTP, Getright, ...

With Easy CD Creator:

Open Easy CD Creator

Go to "File"

then to "Create CD from disc image"

make sure to change the bottom drop down menu ("Files of type:") to say

"ISO image files"

It will do the rest after you browse to the *.iso file

With WinOnCD:

You can select a "track-image" project when you click the New button. So long as you are in track mode, not file-system mode (how that looks depends on whether you have 3.0 or 3.5) then dragging a track image file onto the CD window should accept it as a raw track. WinOnCD uses .RAW as its own
extension

With Nero Burning Rom:

Open Nero.

Close the wizard if it is started automatically.

Go to "File"

then to "Burn Image...".

In the next dialog, click on "Image Files (*.nrg)" and select "All files(*.*)".

Choose the .iso file and accept.

In the following, dialog make sure:

* Type of Image is: Data Mode 1

* Block size: 2048

* Image header: 0

* Image trailer: 0

* All the checkboxes are unchecked.

Click "OK".

In the next dialog, check that the "write" and "finalize" option are active.

Click on "Write".

With K3b:

Open K3b

Goto "Tools"

Click "Write ISO image..."

A dialog should open up with the heading "Write Image to CD - K3b".

Make sure your cdrom drive is right along with speed.

Where it says "Image to Write" Click on the little folder.

Ensure that the filter bar says "All Files".

Go to the directory where your .iso file is located, click it then click "OK".

If you have not done so yet click the "MD5 Sum..." button.

Once you are done with that ensure that "Disk at once" and "Burnfree" are both "X"

Then click "Write"
