Burning a DVD image (iso) on regular CD-R's

[liord]

Hello everyone...!
I would like to know if it possible to burn an image file, currently a 2.2GB iso file (from a DVD I guess...) on regular CD's without harming the installation process, so that when CD1 is done installing it will request CD2 and so on...

Other questions, does it matter (for what I asked here above) if it ISO file or BIN, or CCD, NRG, etc...?
Until I get a DVD burner, I guess this is my only option is possible at all...
What DVD burner would you folks recommend me?

Thank-you.

What program did you use to create the iso?

First question :
Needs to remake an installer. Hard and time-consuming, and does not work is a file is more than 700 Mb. My advice :
1/ if you want to use the iso, just mount it with Daemon Tools. It works like a real DVD reader, and it's free.
2/ if you want to archive the iso for later use (when you'll have a burner), then use Winrar to make an archive with a zero compression fragmented at 700 Mb, and burn the fragments on CD.

Other questions :
1/ Yes, it does matter if it's a bin/cue or an iso.
2/ DVD burner : Pioneer or Nec.

Bonjour chez vous,

Why not ask the person you copied the iso from?

Yeh I was getting to that.

The ISO file was created with WinISO.
Does not matter now, I splitted the large file with one of the archiving utilities. Spanned it over a few CD Roms.

Thanks all the same, for all the help.
