There is a shellscript in Misc called mkcds you can use like this: sh /home/Mandrake/cooker/cooker/misc/mkcds /home/Mandrake/cooker/cooker/ /home/iso/cooker where home/Mandrake/cooker/cooker/ is where a local mirror exists and /home/iso/cooker is where you have a directory created to hold the iso files but right now it is not working correctly for people that have only 650MB CD-R or CD-RW's May the force be with you Salane King On Thursday 12 July 2001 08:22 am, you wrote: > Where can these Cooker ISOs be downloaded from? > > Thanks > > Darin - > - Original Message - > From: "Ron Stodden" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Thursday, July 12, 2001 7:52 AM > Subject: Re: [Cooker] 1-Cooker-i586.iso still to big for CD-RW > > > Stefan Hußfeldt wrote: > > > CD-RW disc capacity is only 650MB. > > > > Today's CD-RW blanks are labelled and support 700 MB (has been tested > > here for Princo blanks - 699.something MB) > > > > -- > > Ron.

Re: [Cooker] 1-Cooker-i586.iso still to big for CD-RW
Price doesn't mean anything when you have a supply of cd's that you waste on trying to burn a too big iso on, except when you run out of them. THis discussion is worthless, when the 80 min cd's are ok but not the lowest common standard for people now.

See my point? Both are cheap anyway. It seems like the industry is standardising on 700MB CD-RWs, which is good, and suppliers are offloading their old, obsolete, 640MB stock as quickly as they can. I suspect 640MB CDRWs are no longer being manufactured. This should pose no problem since the capacity, etc., of a CD-RW is encoded on the disk by the manufacturer (and displayed to you in the ATIP section if you use the verbose mode of cdrecord) so that it can be used in any CD-RW drive, CD-R drive, or (very recently manufactured) CDROM drive. -- Ron.

did u try re-isoing the distro with a more efficient set of algorithms? (if u use a client, that means like the 'try harder' button on gcombust which of course wont function because mdk uses old mkisofs).

I don't think, that solving problems with better, greater, more expensive, etc. hardware is the right way. -- Und Tschüss. Stefan ### Kilroy was here ### 5481 2:20pm up 112 days
