When I download Ubuntu I get an ISO file which I have burned to a CD (this is using my Windoze machine). I have loaded Ubuntu 5.10 onto another machine via a CD from Library book. That machine runs however Firefox browser seems to only go to Ubuntu web site. The/a second tab doesn't connect to the internet but eventually displays a "times out" message. Also I can't figure out how to access files from other Windows machines via ethernet. Therefore the Linux experience thus far is fruitless and frustrating. I would like to get Ubuntu 6.10 onto the Linux machine but when putting the CD, mentioned above, in the 5.10 machine not much happens of a useful nature. How does one use the Windows machine to creat a CD that is not an "ISO" file??
