Hi,
I would agree with Alans post but I would add this to it.
First make sure you are in the right directory, running copy/b just anywhere isn't going to work. When you downloaded the files, you put them some where. Find them, then in the cmd line, cd to them. Like Alan shows his are in the download directory.
Next see how Alan has typed it out, that is what you must do...take note that the last name, (sol-10-u3-ga-x86-dvd.iso) is probably of Alans choosing. When you use the copy/b option, the last name is what you are creating. I like a simple name, like "SXpress.iso" that works for me. (I havn't a clue why the worlds best operating system uses the worlds worst file naming convention) lol
Okay, hit enter...it should compile. If it doesn't, maybe you don't have any DVD software upon your box. Or perhaps you mistyped something, double check and make sure your squared away...then go at it.
Once compiles, now burn it to DVD. It should work fine.
Have fun,
Chooch
