Look at the README.TXT file in that folder on the FTP server. It explains what eash of the images are. The short answer is, No, you don't need that ifyou already have "install". > 2) It seems to me that it's a foolish question: > How can I make CDs from images?

Not knowing what program you have, I can only give you a general answer. If you're using a Unix like system (FreeBSD, or Linux or similar) use cdrecord, which will allow you to burn from an image. If you're using windows, you'll have to hunt through the god-awful "user friendly" menus and possibly the help files to figure it out. Every CD burning program I've seen (even the crappy windows ones) have an option to "burn CD from a CD image". For some reason, they tend to bury that ability deep in the menus, but it's always been there, any time I've looked. -Bill To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
