Default slackware 9.1 iso - How do I burn from Easy CD Creator to install from CD...

I have an md5sum checked copy of 5 files as follows:

slackware-9.1-install-d1.iso
slackware-9.1-install-d1.iso.asc.txt*
slackware-9.1-install-d1.iso.md5.txt*
slackware-9.1-install-d1.torrent.txt*
slackware-9.1-install-d2.iso
slackware-9.1-install-d2.iso.asc.txt*
slackware-9.1-install-d2.iso.md5.txt*
slackware-9.1-install-d2.torrent.txt*

I md5sum'd the files against a mirror site and the iso files checked
out. I don't have a CD burner on my linux box, so I burned the 2 iso
files (creating an image file) to two CDs using Easy CD Creator.

I have a box with 2 hard drives, one drive is Mandrake linux 9.1
(upgraded). The other is Windows XP. I want to be able to download iso
files, then create 2 CDs from those iso files in Windows xp (Easy CD
Creator) and then boot into the CDs and partition, format and install
slackware directly from those CDs on my linux box.

1. Did I burn the CDs correctly with Easy CD Creator?
2. How do I install the iso files from the CDs?

Thank you,
