EZ cd creator does not recognize a .img file - I used the same file, I just
renamed it to .iso ... I am under the impression from reading the HOWTO that
it is just a plain ISO ... it says in the instructions to burn it as a plain
ISO, so I assume that is what it is.
Anyone else have any ideas ?
thanks,
Joesh
