ok. just a huge newbie here.
i d/l all 3 of the rh 8.0 iso files and would like to burn then on a cd. i would also like to boot from these cd's. i've been searching and searching to find out how exactly to do that. i've read on how to make a boot floppy but i prefer to do that from the cd.
could anyone point me in the right direction.
thanks

Anyone familiar with Postfix?

What OS and burning application do you plan to use? If you use something that can burn a CD from ISO (and not simply copy the ISO to a blank) then the first disk should be bootable.

well i'll be using win98se and as far as the burning program, well that is still up in the air since i know zero about linux. i usually use easy cd creator. i've heard that there is a certain way to burn the iso but i've yet to see it.
any hints would be appreciated.

Look for an option to burn "images", but I thought that EZ CD Creator was bound to the .ISO extension anyway and would open when you double clicked on the file. Check the help documentation on it, and it should be fairly easy to find.
