Anyone have a mirror that supports at least a torrent for 6.0 on DVD?
I hate the ISO's with all that damned swithing of the CD's.

Better yet, doe anyone know the layout used to create the DVD?


Hi,

I haven't yet tried this myself but nevertheless thought you might find it interesting. The following article(s) seem to detail how one would go about laying out an installation disk set.

It's probably not as straight forward as it sounds but I'm going to give a try for making a dvd for an x86 system. I'll post to the list re this subject heading with my progress.

Hope this helps,

Thank you for the links however, this isn't what I asked. Allow me to re articulate:

1. I would like a link to either where there may be a full blown DVD image of 6.0 or a torrent.

2. If not the above, the layout used to create the DVD image.

Now allow me to explain 1 and 2 so there isn't anymore wild answers to questions users seem to think they read.

Reason 1:
If installing more then just the base OS (allow me to say that one key word, INSTALL) then swapping out the CD's is not something I'm willing to spend 3 hours doing (perhaps that was an embellishment after the fact).

Reason 2:
If there isn't a DVD image to download (either in whole or torrent) then the layout would allow me to create my own INSTALL DVD with my curent 6.0 roms.

There - now that I have taken the time to eplain this, I hope there isn't anymore confusion as to what I'm asking.


Best regards,
Chris
