Burning a CD from .iso?
I followed the instructions for Finder, and ended up with a disk with the .iso file on it, instead of a bootable CD.
Is this possible in Finder?

hdiutil burn ~/Desktop/ubuntu-5.10-install-i386.iso

Use Disk Utility
found under Utilities. I used it to make CDs when I installed kubuntu on my Thinkpad.
Click the BURN button.
- OR -
Select the IMAGES menu, then BURN option.
Either method will prompt for the image and where to burn it.

Tried that, it didn't do anything.
Clicking "Burn" did absolutely nothing other than indicate that the button had been clicked.

disk utility
is what works for me. Just brought it up, selected an iso from the list on left panel, clicked the burn icon and the CD tray opened, a dialog box displayed asking for a disk to be inserted. I've made bootable disks this way before, I don't understand if you're getting something else.
Have fun, Carl Forde

don't know what to tell you
I've burned a number of CDs this way.
Hmm - by chance have you upgraded your burner? I know you can't use just any old CDRW with OS X. Different models will have various levels of support and may work with some, but not other, programs under OS X. Back when I had the G3 I upgraded the CDRW and made sure I got one that supported all the programs.
