try burning your 4.5 iso on that w2k/server, something is funning with the
cd
burner in the xp system. there's no change to the cd filesystem in the 4.5
cd it's
still ISO 9660 w/ Rockridge extensions. I just installed 2 systems
yesterday
from a 4.5 ISO that I burned on a w98 system running adaptec's sleazy cd
creator.
if your desperate then you can go here http://www.multimania.com/typsoft/
for a
little windows ftp server you can run on your windows box, mount the 4.5 cd
in it
and do a FTP install over the network. Good luck!
