I don't have dvd writer

I currently don't have a dvd-writer and am trying to install rc1 but can't
extract iso file.
Are there any programs i can use to do so?

thanks in advance!!

First, it's time to get a DVD burner. Some of the really high quality
units, full featured (dual layer, even "lightscribe") are under $40

There are software packages that will "mount" an .ISO file to a "virtual
optical drive", given a drive letter and it acts like real drive. I'm
not sure you could do an install from such a virtual drive, but you
probably could copy it's contents to real 3 gigabyte partition on your
hard drive and perhaps do the install from there. Maybe, but I'm not
sure. Slysoft has a free virtual optical drive package.
