Hi Mark - I got this script somewhere; sorry, I've forgotten now. In
any case, I've created DVDs from all the recent SciLin releases using
it. Simply make a directory eg. i38642rc2 and put all the cd iso's
in it. Then run make.dvdiso.sh from the parent directory eg. the
tree is somthing like:
$HOME/i38642rc2/
$HOME/i38642rc2/cd1.iso
$HOME/i38642rc2/cd2.iso
$HOME/i38642rc2/cd3.iso
$HOME/i38642rc2/cd4.iso
$HOME/make.dvdiso.sh
Now running:
./make.dvdiso.sh i386rc2/ SL.42rc2.DVD.i386.iso
will create a dvd iso called SL.42rc2.DVD.i386.iso in the i386rc2/
directory. burn normally making sure to create a bootable dvd
(I use growisofs).
hope this helps
-Karl
