Make sure you have plenty of space.

Download the .iso files.  Compare the file sizes with those on the
server to make sure you got the whole iso file.

Insert a blank cdr into the drive then start Nero.

Navigate to the folder of the first .iso file and select it.

Make sure Write and "Finalize Cd" is checked, then click the "Write"
button.

Tip:  You do "not" unpack the iso files!

That's it!  Burn the next iso, etc.

If you burn from the iso image and you selected Write and Finalize in
Nero, all that's needed is to make sure that your bios boots from the
cdrom first.

Install the cdr into the drive and reboot.

If it fails to write the cdr, you may want to try buring a lower
speed!

Good luck,
