Hi. I have a strange problem -- in previous versions of knppix, I extracted the compressed file system on the cd, made the kernel changes and then recompressed successfully. NOw if I just extract and then do a mkisofs -- after changing only two small files and the kernel, it comes out about 4 megs larger than before, and so it compresses much bigger.

Does anyone know what I am doing wrong.

I use mkisofs -r -o <filename> <place where I extracted the compressed system>

Also, I saw a post about a remastering howto -- where is this to be found?

Any assistance would be appreciated.
