Dear Salam,
Yes, these iso images first you have to burn on CD or simply make it a bootable CentOs 4.5 CD. Just like you have windows bootable CD.
There is no need to unzip the files as it makes no sense. just burn the CDs with these iso images.
Secondly, in centos.org website there is also availibility of "Server CD image" comprise of one iso image only, means you have the server addition on single CD. But here u can use CentOs only as command line not GUI, The GUI can be installed with "yum" as well...

Hello!
I just joined this mailing list a couple of minutes ago. I'll start to use CentOS for academic purposes. We'll try to build a cluster based in machines with this OS.
First of all, I'd like to beg you for patience, because I'm comple- tly new in Linux.
My first question is: every tutorial on installation talks about inserting an installation CD, but I'm not sure about what do it means... I've downloaded the four files .iso availabe in CentOS.org, but I don't know what to do with them. Should I burn this files into de CD the way they are? Should I unzip them before this?
Details: I'm using Windows, trying to install CentOS 4 in a 32 bit's PC. I've downloaded CentOS-4.5-i386-bin.......iso.
Thank you for any help!
