When you put the CD in a windows machine, what do you see on the cd? Do
you see one file (mandrake60-1.iso) or do you see several directories
(Mandrake, RedHat, images, etc.)?
If you see the former, well, now you've got a fine shiny coaster. You
made a mistake when you burned the CD.
The .iso file is actually an entire filesystem. It's an "image" of a CD.
What you should do is select whatever option says something similar to
"burn the CD with an ISO image" (it may not say "ISO"). This will put the
*filesystem* (as opposed to the *file*) on the CD.
If you knew this already, then you probably should go to the /images
directory and select the appropriate floppy boot image (I believe the
README provides a good synopsis).
