Help! Multi-Boot DVD, how to create CD images?
Hi, I don't have a broadband connection and so rely upon magazines in order to get linux. I recently purchased linux magazine (UK) with a multi-boot knoppix collection on DVD, I woulc like to create cd images to create cds in order to use in a laptop without a DVD drive (I have a desktop pc which I use for linux which has a DVD drive). The DVD boots to a menu from which you select which knoppix clone to boot. There are two main directories
_DIST_
containing various directories, eg kanotix, knoppix, knoppix-std each containing a KNOPPIX subdirectory with the KNOPPIX file in and a BOOT directory
ISOLINUX
which contains isolinux.bin, isolinux.cfg, boot.cat, boot.msg, memtest, welcome.16 and which also contains various directories, eg kanotix, knoppix, etc., inside which resides files vmlinuz, miniroot.gz and (eg) kanotix.msg
I assume that the ISOLINUX directory is soley for the DVD and its menu, and that I need to copy folders from the _DIST_ directory and make a cd image using mkisofs.
Anyone know how to do this? I have really used linux for a long time, and am getting back into using it. If someone can help please can you print the commands like a step by step guide. I'll probably create the images on a FAT HDD and burn them in Windows (please don't shout!).
Thank you for any help!
BTW, I need to used Kanotix as it still has teTeX included. And I've missed Knoppix 3.3 or earlier (I have 3.4 and it works well).
