I just downloaded the Xandros open circulation form the website using Bit torrent, the download says 100% complete, however it still says that it is seeding, what does seeding mean?? any help would be appreciated.

You are probably still uploading - don't worry about it. If you've got the file you can stop and do your checksum, then burn the ISO.

One more question if you dont mind...I already extracted the file to a folder, now how do I make that file a ISO so I can burn the image?

Would do I need to do to make this work plz help, I read the online how to, and I still cant figure out how to make this file an ISO.



thx

Well, geeze - I don't know. Whats the file extension now? If it's not already an ISO then I assume it's a zip, or rar file of some kind. In that case you would need a decompression program like winzip or something to uncompress it. Then it should be the ISO file after being uncompressed. Then you would need a good burning program like Nero to make the bootable image file. You can go here http://iso.linuxquestions.org/ and see how to burn an ISO.

sorry man, ha ha, but I get to the point where I can extract the files using winrar but where do I extract them to and how do I make an ISO , thanks for the quick replys, I am trying to get this to work I am a bit new.

You can extract it to anywhere, the desktop - it's own folder etc. and it should be an ISO already when extracted. Just look for the ISO file extension. Then all you need to do is burn the image of the ISO to a CR-R. That doesn't mean that you just copy the ISO to the CD-R - it means you have to burn an image. Go to the link I provided above and it will tell you how to do it.

Seeding is to do with Bit Torrent....

The idea is that after you have downloaded a file you become a seed allowing others to download the file from you rather than using the original providers bandwidth.... sort of like a mirror server
