The big problem here is that the linux machine does not have a cd
burner. And I don't own the machine that does. So I'm trying to find
ways to create an ISO image from linux (I think I have that solved, not
too sure...my transfer means is upload by 56k modem, then download it to
the other machine...so each mistake costs a lot of irritation). Oh, and
their phone line is filtered, so they only achieve 26.4 kbps during
downloads. *ouch, that hurts!*

I guess I am really asking by what means other people here have burned
Linux ISO's from a win machine (if I had the money I would buy my own
burner).
