3. From the K3b window, select Tools???Burn CD ISO Image to burn a CD image or Tools???
Burn DVD ISO Image to burn a DVD image. You are asked to choose an image file.
4. Browse to the image you just downloaded or copied to hard disk and select it. Once the
image you want is selected, the Burn CD Image window appears, as does a checksum on
the image. (Often, you can compare the checksum number that appears against the number
in an md5 file from the download directory where you got the live CD to be sure that the
CD image was not corrupted.) Figure A-1 shows the Burn CD Image window ready to burn
an image of Damn Small Linux.
5. Insert a blank CD into the CD burner drive, which may be a combination with your DVD
drive. (If a CD/DVD Creator window pops up, you can just close it.)
6. Check the settings in the Burn CD Image window (often the defaults are fine, but you
may want to slow down the speed if you get some bad burns). You can also select the
Simulate check box to test the burn before actually writing to the CD. Click Start to
continue.
7. When the CD is done burning, eject it (or it may eject automatically) and mark it appropriately
(information such as the distribution name, version number, and date).
