I don't really have time for a Wiki page right now, but here are the 
instructions:

1.  It is advised to check the md5sum with the freeware Md5summer, 
available at http://www.md5summer.org/. It will save you a lot of hassle 
to check it, especially if you are a newbie.  That way, if anything is 
not working well, you will know for sure it is not your original ISO 
image which is corrupt because the md5sum was checked (see wiki for 
md5sum details).

2. With Nero, open the iso image.  Either double click on the iso image 
file, or right click on the image and select Nero.  Nero right will then 
launch, ready to burn the iso file (the right menu will have been 
selected by Nero automagically).  Insert a blank disk, and press burn.  
You now have a Linux CD.  Repeat with other images if the distro has 
more than one CD.

3. If you have Roxio on your computer, double click the iso image file 
(or right click the iso imageif the wrong applications is launched - 
some people have many CD burning applications.).  Roxio Disc Copier will 
launch, ready to burn the iso file (the right menu will have been 
selected by Roxio automagically).  Insert a blank disk, and press burn 
(the orange icon with a CD in flame).  You now have a Linux CD.  Repeat 
with other images if the distro has more than one CD.

Have fun.
