What do you think? The user of the german PrOOo-Box are very interested to use an offline installation for the dictionaries.

My operation system is Windows XP and Suse 9.3. The german ISO is creating on the webserver by mkisofs. So there is the ISO-Root folder with all needed programms and files. If you ready to create, you start an *.sh and this script create the ISO and his md5sum in a specific folder. >> >> Best regards, >> >> Uwe Schoeler >> > >-- >Alex Fisher > >Co-Lead, CD-ROM Project > >OpenOffice.org Marketing >Community Contact >Australia/New Zealand Uwe Schoeler --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
