Hi:

Im trying to get a couple of scripts of mine onto a bootable FreeBSD 5.4 install cd. Im going about this as follows.

Im ripping the iso image from the cd with dd

dd if=/dev/acd0 of=file.iso bs=2048

Then, Im mounting the iso image

mdconfig -a -t vnode -f /usr/iso-orig/file.iso -u 0

mount -t cd9660 /dev/md0 /iso

..and copying its contents to disk with cp -R


Now, all of the sudden, the /rescue dir grows from 3.5M to 455M so after i copy my scripts to the extracted iso filesystem on my hard disk and try to make an iso I cannot burn the ISO because its way too big. Can anyone help me with this?

Im trying to get some kind of autoinstall going ( above just install.cfg with sysinstall ).



Thanks

You might want to try 'live-cd' its the same program which is used to create the FreeBSD livecd's ( FreeSBIE ) you should check in sysutils/livecd and then just follow the 'wizzard' http://liveucd.sf.net for more info

Good luck
