If your using a premade iso then all you need to do is burn it. The INSTALL
instructions/FAQs are for making your own image from scratch. Also, if you
are using one of the premade iso's please read the mailing list archives.
The iso's I made only boot newer OF machines and you'll need to boot with a
command like "boot cd:,ofwboot.elf netbsd.ram.gz" once in OF.

FYI: The only cd-writer I have is on a windows2000 machine and but burns
just fine (Adaptec EZ-CD). I have no way to test Toast. I assume it works
fine as well.
