"... excellent. i'll do that then. i dont wanna pay for any software to do
it.
the whole idea was "free". if i wanted to pay money for it, i would have
bought it from linuxcentral.com for 10 bucks (plus S+H). ..."
"... how long would it take to dl a full ISO (650mb or so) on a cable
connection. ..."
Usually the servers are not that fast; try late at night and expect a
couple of hours.
"... Before you download make sure you can burn an ISO - the other reply
said that you probably don't have the software to do it. The only way I
have burned an ISO on MacOS 9 is with Toast - but I was using the full
version.
MacOS 9 has something called Disc Burner, which you can start up. It then
asks you to insert a blank media to begin, but I can't get any further
than that because I don't have a burner. I don't know if it allows you to
burn a .iso or not. (Dammit - I think it crashed my machine too...) ..."
Disk Burner won't work-it only can format a disk as HFS+[HFS Extended]/ISO
9660; YDL requires HFS [HFS Standard]/ISO 9660. That's why you need Toast
or OSX.
