Linux on PowerPC FAQ-O-Matic: Disk Images

	Linux on PowerPC FAQ-O-Matic : Start Here! (Getting started/First day) : Disk Images
	HELP!!! I downloaded the linuxppc full release disk image, from the ftp site and now can't open it up. I downloaded it first with Internet explorer and then tried opening it with Disk Copy by dragging onto the icon and it tells me that it doesnt recognize the file as a disk image. Then I tried doing the same thing with Shrink Wrap and still couldnt open it, this time it told me that I may need PC exchange to open it. So I went to PC exhcange and there is already an extension mapped for a .image file and it is for disk copy. So I thought that maybe Internet Explorer did something funny with the files extension and didnt map it correctly so I downloaded it again using an FTP program, Anarchy and still no luck. seanmill@aol.com
	try using toast to mount it, .image or •image files are from toast exif@mac.com
	The disk image you downloaded is an ISO Image. Shrink Wrap, and DiskCopy cannot recognise or mounth ISO images. Toast can burn a CD from an ISO image. Id send a few bucks to the guys who will burn you a CD. ( and send them twice the amount, and get 2 CDs. I got a scratch on mine, and had to wait...wish I had had the sense to order a backup the first time, and they are nice guys anyway. ) You can burn the ISO image from Nero on a P.C. also. ( works perfectly in a 2x Apple CD 300i ) killmofasta<A><T>Hotmail.com
	Dont forget that it is one bootable disk! altamir.paberta@brfree.com.br
