Simply download the .iso files via FTP in BINARY (or "IMAGE ") mode and
save them. Try going here with your browser:
ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/core/1/i386/iso/
Click on each of the "yarrow-i386-discN.iso " links. When your browser
asks you what to do, save them to some scratch directory somewhere.
Once you 've downloaded the images, use your CD burning software to burn
the CDs from those .iso files. Make SURE you tell your software that
the files are ISO images (that 's IMPORTANT!). An ISO image is an image
of the CD itself. If you burn the CDs and look at their contents, if
you only see one file, you burned them incorrectly.

No, as described above.
