I am trying to install Lubuntu on a 2002 Gateway, and it appears USB is not an option: Options include CD/DVD-Drive, Floppy, Hard Disk, and LAN.

The BurningIsoHowTo instructions do not work: Dragging the iso -- I have already verified the MD5 checksum -- to the left pane of Disk Utility does nothing, and File > Open Disk Image > selecting the downloaded iso also does nothing.

I am left with the impression that the instructions are outdated and that asking here is the most efficient means to proceed. Please help me. Thank you.
