But, can't you just burn the regular ISO on a DVD ?
--After the results of this poll are in (2 week limit on votes) I'll email Klaus with the results. I think this DVD project should be made available to *us*, the regular Knoppix users.
--Actually, BitTorrent should be ideal for this; just thought of that.

Yes, I think so. Maybe it's even a little faster than booting from CD.Originally Posted by Freeze Styler
But well, the whole thing about the upcomming DVD release is that they can finaly put about all requested software on the CD^W^WDVD. It's just that Klaus Knopper doesn't feel like maintaining it, just a stunt so to say.
I am all for the DVD being made available to everyone who wants its, be it via DL of ISO on ftp, bittorrent or what have you.
I am ALSO for the DVD being made available via a Linux CD distributor(s) for those, like me, with out DVD burners, or a desire to DL ISO's, also me.
Also you should elaborate in the poll question as to what the "free" in the free software means. I doubt it matches MY definition of the term versus Mr. Knoppers and the intended definition here.
See http://www.knoppix.net/forum/viewtop...393&highlight= for free v free.
Do we vote here? I'm all for gnucash being put on...that is if enough gnome makes it on there to make gnucash a possibility.
--It's on there. Check the package list at my Yahoo briefcase:

--If you can't get to it, email me and I'll mail you the file as an attachment. In addition, if anyone can recommend a good free file-sharing service (yahoo seems to have clamped down on file sharing unless you pay them) let me know.

i would pay also - but like most no dvd burner but after using knoppix for only a short time i do have to say it ROCKS !
I'll pony up the bux for a DVD as I don't believe in a free lunch at someone else's expense and I don't have a DVD burner but I do have a DVD drive.
I would pay also, and yes I don't have a DVD burner.
