Gene, that's weird you had to do something special to get Nero working. I installed this RH7.2 system from ISOs dled from Gnutella and rh FTP and burned on Nero 5.5.4.0 on a WinXP Pro Corporate system using this relatively standard method:
Open Nero to "Nero Burning Wizard" check "Compile a new CD" > Next check "Other CD formats" > Next check "Create a CD from an image file" > Next > Finish Opens to "Open" dialog box, where you can browse to an *.iso or *.nrg file > Open Opens to "Nero Wizard [Burn CD]" window check "Burn" or "Test and burn" radio button uncheck "Create image" box (checked will simply copy the image file to a virtual CD drive) select write speed click "Burn" Opens to compilation burning window, which burns. Aside from accidentally dling the second music CD from the artist "Enigma" from Gnutella, everything went fine for me (yes, I actually burned it and tried to put it in the CD-ROM when it asked for CD#2 during the install -- yes, I then went to rh FTP site to dl it!! ;) The installation didn't mind waiting tho'.... oops!).
