Right - CD burning software usually gives you the option of burning a CD from a
single image file.  I don't know if there is a way to "mount -t iso9660" that
file and access the image contents on disk.  I kinda doubt it, although Linux
holds many surprises.

So, is it a cdrom image, or could I download it to a hard drive?  I'd
like to upgrade, and I have the space.
