You talk about putting these images on optical media, but never
suggest
how.
That was an exercise I was going to leave to the reader, but I can
include
it if so desired.
I don't care too much; it just seemed like you put a lot of effort
into
helping people put the images on flash media, but after having
mentioned a
DVD, said nothing about cdrw or cdrecord, or the use of double-
sided or
double-layered DVDs that might actually hold the whole thing, etc.
I don't
know that putting this stuff on a DVD makes much sense, but then why
mention it at all?
I didn't provide explicit instructions for the DVD case because I
felt that was a pretty common operation, while dumping an ISO image
to a flash device is decidedly not.
I'm also not certain if cdrecord or cdrw are capable of writing the
resulting 6.6GB iso to a DVD-10 disc.
Obviously, the split ISOs can be written to a "standard" DVD-5 disc.
I suppose the reasoning for burning these images would be that the
system you want to use them on is not network accessible.
