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 -- -------------------------------------------------------------------- | Karl A.
