Im having the same problem with the iso.  So you're saying to just burn the
file to a disk?  That won't work.  Everything I've read in the FAQ's says to
use Toast to mount it, you get two partitions, one hfs and one iso9660.
Then drag them over to toast.  The only problem is I get errors when I do
this.  So if anyone has successfully made a cd from those iso' let us know
