I am not sure i understand what u need to do..
but i am assuming that u have the ISO and don't know what its for !
If so .. Then what u have to do is burn the image..
meaning open ur burner program and choose burn image and find the iso and burn it

Hi Piluc,

The normal installation for RedHat would start from a bootable CD. You can alao install from inside Windows with starting the CD's autorun. It seems you have no access to a CD burner and maybe not even a CD drive.

ISO files can be mounted under Linux, but you don't have it yet. I'm not aware that W2K can mount an ISO file.

I guess you need at least a CD drive and someone who puts the ISO file on a CD for you.

You can install Red Hat from the ISO images. If your Win2K partition is FAT32 it's no problem, but if it's NTFS then the setup won't be able to read it without loading up a module. You just have to tell the setup program that you are installing from the hard disk, and give it the partition name where your Win2K install is(plus path). Such as:
/dev/hda1/RedHat/ or wherever.
