Does my OSX 10.4.8 [JaS AMD-Intel-SSE2-SSE3 with PPF1 & PPF2] have the right files?

[egoncalo]

So I have a copy of Mac OS X 10.4.8 [JaS AMD-Intel-SSE2-SSE3 with PPF1 & PPF2].iso file. I also burned it to a DVD, but the DVD does not boot anything, and after viewing it's contents, all it has is the following files:

BOOT.
BOOT.CAT
BOOT0.
BOOT1H.
BOOT1U.
BOOTHELP.TXT
CDBOOT.
CHAIN0.

Upon exploring the actual ISO those are the only files that are on it. Are these the correct files? My file size is about 4.7gb but unzipping those files only equates to about 128,130 bytes. What's going on?

Thanks in advance.

i dont believe windows can view the contents of those types of cd's. thats all i have also and i boot just fine.

well, the files actually are in your dvd, but your windows cant read them...it just dont recognize them

It is the FAT part of the DVD that you see, the HFS part is hidden from Windows. You actually need the chain0 file if you want to dual boot with windows without thirdparty software.
