Ron that mkcd.pl script you gave me gives the same results. I tried toying
with it a little but haven't gotten it to work successfully. I'm still
ending up with one 34k file that has something about mkisofs inside of after
I checked it out with vi. If I need to paste let me know. Can someone from
Mandrake try to make the ISOs and see what happens?
