[Macpartners] OSX 10.4 iso disks

[Felix Kreisel]

Friends, pardon my ignorance, but...

I just downloaded the MIT OSX 10.4 package, which consisted of four 
Tiger iso images plus an Xtools iso . Then I tried installing from 
them. However, while I can expand each .iso image to a virtual disk 
and run the Installer on disk 1, I cannot use the Installer to do 
anything productive. After I start the 'Install Mac OS X' program on 
the 'Mac OS X Install Disk 1'  virtual disk, the program tells me to 
reboot, asks for the privileged user password, shuts down the system, 
reboots it, and ... nothing. I burned the virtual disks onto 
individual DVD disks, but Disk 1 is not bootable. I  also burned the 
virtual disks onto individual CDR disks, but this Disk 1 is also not 
bootable.

What is the trick? What are iso archives? <:-|
