Jorn; A default leaf.cfg like in the floppy images would be nice. Eric pointed to the modules problem (they are truncated in the latest image). Long term I'd like to see a solution which works without too much human intervention - similar to ISO/FD creation.. or if that doesn't work we may be better off with a script like in 3)? But for the current version 2.4 we can add your image if the remaining pb's are solved. kp ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
