i would like to burn the iso files that i downloaded from yellowdoglinux.com and see how complex of an installation its going to be. i have some spare space and i have been meaning to get this done for a while now. for some reason i cant seem to figure out how to burn an iso to disk other than just dropping it in. is it that easy or am i missing something. it has to be a bootable disk, so i figure there must be something more to it. so what do i do guys? you always have the answers.

Disk Utility will take care of this for you. Open Disk Utility in your Utililities folder, now in the menu bar select Images->Burn then select your ISO and burn.

WAIT! before you install YDL, try Gentoo (http://www.gentoo.org). imho its nicer and better :) but not as easy to install.
