It has multiple files as I have written them as an image cd... however,
still it does not have the boot file on there.
what should be the first cd then? I have copied all the onces from
redhat download:
FC4-i386-SRPMS-disc1.iso 06-Jun-2005 22:58 612M  
FC4-i386-SRPMS-disc2.iso 06-Jun-2005 22:59 612M  
FC4-i386-SRPMS-disc3.iso 06-Jun-2005 23:00 612M  
FC4-i386-SRPMS-disc4.iso 06-Jun-2005 23:01 612M 

This is for a laptop of Acer, which has Centrino and Intel Pentium M
processor... 
can it even be ran on that? (I had troubles with FC2, so that is why I
want 4)

thank you
Inge
