Yes, those images are not for mounting, but for burning. Maybe Toast can
mount them, but the Linux installer expects a CD to be in a CD- or DVD-Rom
Drive, so I guess you'd have to burn it anyway. Or: You could try to copy
its contents to a harddisk and change the install scripts to search on that
harddisk/partition. You'd have to keep the order of directories as is.
