Hi Craig, I resend you an old post that I have writed for something like this for you.
During all my tests, I use some external packages who are on a 1680 ko floppy disk. You have just to write the correct name of the external packages to load in your lrpkg.cfg file recorded on your floppy, without change anything in your CD ! Only if you want to have a definitive complete CD with more packages (those you have just tested previously) or if your parameters are now ok and stable, then you have to rewrite your CD. If you have a RW one, you must clear it with your favorite CD burner, add the new or modified packages in the 'BCD' directory if you have done your previous CD with 'makeiso' with your MS box as described in the Bering user's manual, and burn again your RW CD with the new Bering CD image generated. And you can do and redo this anytime... I hope this could help you... Good luck !

Hi Craig, You must create yours with ae editor, for example. You can have one on your CD - if you have a bootable CD - or HD, for normal use, and you can have another one on an extra floppy, with your test environment (other params in your packages and modules). You can have different modules and packages pointed by your second lrpkg.cfg, if necessary. Following mine on CD : root,etc,local,modules,ppp,pppoe,keyboard,shorwall,dnscache,weblet Following mine on floppy : root,etc,local,modules,ppp,pppoe,keyboard,shorwall,dnscache,weblet,ipsec,mawk You can see that I have IPSec lauched by my floppy version. When I will be happy with my new params, I will burn another CD to avoid the floppy. Ah, I have forgotten : you must change the original isolinux.cfg to suppress the previous suite of packages loaded. Following mine (on CD) : display syslinux.dpy timeout 0 default linux initrd=initrd.lrp init=/linuxrc root=/dev/ram0 boot=/dev/cdrom:iso9660 PKGPATH=/dev/cdrom:iso9660,/dev/fd0u1680:msdos As this, packages from CD are first loaded, but overwrited by floppy versions. You can play with the order of loading as explained in the very good Jacques NILO's user manual ;) I hope my english not too hard to understand, good luck !

The problem is...there's a lot more stuff that I want to end up on the CD than will (temporarily, while you back it up) fit on the Bering floppy. How do manage to "incorporate", "juggle", etc., all of the additional packages that you might want from floppy to bootable CD??? I'm following the Bering documentation, but it doesn't seem to address the "lack of space" issue that I can see. Thank you again!
