It is very hard to reconstruct the iso file for each CD. Rather, the easy way is to
take the two install cds, and use the dd command on another linux system to make iso
files of the two cds. Then get these onto your hard disk by whatever means you have.
use something like: dd if=/dev/cdrom of=seawolfdisc1.iso
