Burning .iso with XP???

Post by antiquexray »

I need some serious help here. My Mint Box CD-RW drive just went belly up. This means I no longer have the ability on this box to burn an .iso and make it bootable for Mint. My question is, can I use my Windows XP Pro burner to make a bootable CD for a Linux Box?

Is this a great community along with a great distro or what? Did the imgburn thing and it worked great. Thanks. I feared I was going to have trouble getting new releases. Thanks again.
