an iso is a disk image - you DONT just burn the file to the disk in the usual way - the best example would be to say that an iso is to a disk what a zip file is to a directory

I like the free version of "deepburner" for burning isos with (google for it) - start it up and it will ask you what you want to do and you select "burn iso image do disk". its possible to burn isos in nero etc but if you do it this way at least if you have any problems i can help

i already burned the iso file into a disk. the pclinuxos i got but when i boot it. After it gave a series of lines i was stuck in DR DOS A: and I dont know what im going to do next so I thought that I must have done something wrong with the burning.

what software did you burn it with?
try it with the deepburner i recomennded

nero.

Hello,

i just figured out how to burn iso's in nero. yesterday i booted up puppy

i dont like puppy. try the "minime" version of PCLinux i prefer it as it installs mucb less crap by default (1cd)

are you just trying out linux or wanting to install?

for an installed system i dont recommened puppy

yup puppy looks very bad. I already have PCLinuxOS bigdaddy.

im just tryin someof the distro's. dont have my own pc yet(im using my cousin's). il buy hopefully by January.

btw what is the standard keyboard code. when i booted puppy up. iwas given the choice of keyboard. i randomly choose the keyboard. and when i use puppy it seems it wont responce to any of my keyboard input

depends on the dist, do you want the number codes or the letters?
