    Arg! I tried again, this time using gtoaster. I
    couldn't find anyway to specify the right way for the
    iso files to be written. I clicked on "record to cd"
    and it burned the CD--and again it just shows up as 1
    iso file. I tried right-clicking on the disc 1 iso
    file in the folder it's in (my home folder), but
    there's no option I can find for "burn to CD."

    Maybe I should just shell out the $50 for one of the
    Fedora Core books, because it looks as if I can't
    write the bloody iso files to the CD the right way.

    Unless...someone mentioned using "cdrecord" in the
    terminal. If that's possible, could someone please
    tell me exactly what to type if I want to burn the
    disc 1 iso files from my home folder to a CD?
