combining and burning .toast files

Alright, first off here are my comp’s specs. I’m running a Macbook Pro with OS X Tiger. 2.4 Ghz Intel Processor, 2 Gigs of RAM, 160 GB HD, blah, blah, blah.
Anyways, I got a whole bunch of .toast files tonight for Final Cut Studio. They’re all labeled as follows: Final_Cut_Studio_2.toast.001, Final_Cut_Studio_2.toast.002, Final_Cut_Studio_2.toast.003, and on and on and on. There’s 81 of these separately split up into 50 MB sections (when combined they exactly fit onto 1 DVD, that being 3.94 GBs worth of info total). I’ve been told that I can burn these files using Toast. I’ve got Toast 7 Titanium, but have no idea how to combine these disc images so that I can place them all onto a DVD that I would then be able to run as the disc for FCP. Three questions:
1.) Do I have the correct version of Toast?
2.) How do I combine these files into a single disc image so that I can burn them?
or
3.) Do I just place these all into Toast, burn them together as a data DVD? Will the resulting DVD be fully functional?
I’m not totally sure on how to do this. I’m familiar with combining dmgs, I’ve done that plenty before, but I have had little experience working with .toast files, so any help at all would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Answer #1
Anyone?
Answer #2
They are probably compressed, like RARs. Open them with Stuffit Expander.
Answer #3
My computer doesn’t even detect them as archives (it detects them as mpegs), which I find a little weird. Should I remove the number from the end of each of the files so that each file simply ends in .toast?
Also, once I decompress them, how should I join them together so that I can install the program?
Answer #4
The .001, .002,…. extensions are simply a file split with hjsplit

There’s a version for every platform.
Answer #5
Thank you. That was exactly the answer I was looking for.
Thanks a ton. I can’t wait to start using FCP.
