Yes, I have a DVD drive, but what I don't have is the "know-what" and a little of the "know-how" to put on the DVD(s). Here is the link on GT mirror site for CentOS 5.6 h<A HREF="http://www.gtlib.gatech.edu/pub/centos/5.6/os/x86_64/images/">ttp://www.gtlib.gatech.edu/pub/centos/5.6/os/x86_64/images/</A>, what do I need to pull down from among those files to make a successful install? In what order? <BR>
<BR>
<BR>
Thanks, <BR>

First, download the 2 DVD image files from here:<BR>

<A HREF="http://mirrors.kernel.org/centos/5.6/isos/x86_64/CentOS-5.6-x86_64-bin-DVD-1of2.iso">http://mirrors.kernel.org/centos/5.6/isos/x86_64/CentOS-5.6-x86_64-bin-DVD-1of2.iso</A><BR>
<A HREF="http://mirrors.kernel.org/centos/5.6/isos/x86_64/CentOS-5.6-x86_64-bin-DVD-2of2.iso">http://mirrors.kernel.org/centos/5.6/isos/x86_64/CentOS-5.6-x86_64-bin-DVD-2of2.iso</A><BR>
<BR>
Burn those 2 separate <B><I>image</I></B> (.iso) files to 2 separate blank DVDs <B><I>as images</I></B> (not as a regular file) and label them accordingly (DVD 1 of 2 and DVD 2 of 2)<BR>
Then boot off the freshly burned 'DVD 1 of 2' and follow the prompts...<BR>

Try this link <A HREF="http://mirror.its.uidaho.edu/pub/centos/%C2%A0">http://mirror.its.uidaho.edu/pub/centos/ </A> Follow the links until you get a page listing the various iso's available and choose both of the dvd images. Make sure you click on the isos link. The Tech site is linking to torrents for the dvd. The Tech link is not a page where you can download the torrents.<BR>
<BR>
Open your cd/dvd burning software, such as Brasero, you should be able to select burning an iso image or have it recognize as an iso image. <BR>
