I have just downloaded all 1.79 GB's of the RED Hat Source RPMS and have a few questions. One is that they are just individual files not in any ISO image so what RPM goes on what disk and are there any more files needed to complete the RPM Disks.

Secondly once I have everything on Disks how do I use them

Thanks In Advance.

If you are trying to install RedHat, then you do not need the Source RPMS disks. You need the other 3 iso disks. The source disk is if you need to rebuild any rpm from source. It is a convenience to have, but not a necessity.
