Very good. I didn't know this. Going to experiment... I hope other distros can work this way, to facilitate our life. I'm trying to install one Debian ETCH for a month, on my free time, without success. For my own knowledge, so, without any support, yet... With SLES I didn't have any problem... Thanks a lot, Mark. Clovis.

With SLES10, you can actually insert the media into a PC and boot from it.
It should bring up the rescue system. From there, you can mount the DVD,
configure the NIC, and start the NFS server to act as an installation
server for your mainframe. This also would act as a good test of the
burning process. ;)
