Description Tomasz Ostrowski 2006-03-22 15:28:16 UTC
In "Installation-Related Notes" there should be an examples on how to burn ISO
images to media using software available in previous FC releases.

For example:

To burn CD iso image ensure that you have "cdrecord" package installed (you
install cdrecord) and use a command like this:
# cdrecord -v -pad -eject -data FC-5-i386-disc1.iso

To burn DVD iso image ensure that you have "dvd+rw-tools" package installed (yum
install dvd+rw-tools) and use a command like this:
# growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/dvd=FC-5-i386-DVD.iso

Warning:
Do not use cdrecord to burn DVD+R media - this will probably not work:

There was some work done to put a file in the download directory that explained
how to burn the ISOs:
