As originator of this thread, thanks to all posters.  Having started
 from the floor, I feel that I now have a reasonable grasp of the
 matter.

    The answer to my original "what's the cheapest reliable" question
 seems to be to get one of the recommended IDE CD-R drives, replace my
 current CD-reader by it, and make sure that I have enough space on
 my HDD to write the disk-image before going into 'burn' mode.  Has
 the great advantage of not needing another bay, which I haven't got
 (it's a thick desktop case).

    May need to think about HDD though.  2.1Gb seemed excessive when
 I bought it ....

    Thanks to all.  Closing down and heading for the Himalaya.

                                            Chris K.
