You burn this file:
http://ydl.oregonstate.edu/iso/yellowdo ... 090629.iso

It should be about 3.8 Gigs - roughly the size of a single layer DVD.

Remember - you don't open the ISO up like a .ZIP file. Instead, you create the disc from the ISO - there's hidden boot sector information in there!

If you're burning from Windows, we recommend a free program called IMGBURN. Use the Burn Image To Disc option.

Also - don't forget to check the SHA1SUM value of the file you downloaded. The list of SHA1SUM values is here:

A quick how-to is here:
