Dear Troy,
Thanks for your fast reply.
But, I insist. The space used by 2 DVD Disk, or 1 DVD + 1 CD, is the same
that an only one Disk, DVD-Dual Layer, and at this time... in 2011, so any
DVD Reader-Writer can Write a Single or Dual Layer DVD, and 1 Disk is better
that 2.
Yes the newer drives can read DVD-Dual Layer but the media to burn
DVD-Dual Layer is much more expensive.
More simple to install, to back-up, no need 2 kinds of media to make the set
of disk, and in many cases, the second disk is don't used, after that the
System Admin lose the time in create it.
Then just download the INSTALL vs the Everything DVD image as this is what
TUV ships.
Thanks for the links, and I will create my own DVD-DL.
We used revisor so that if we did not provide the "media" that you need
then you can make your own.

Dear Scientifics Linux Users,
Why not exist, an only one disk, Full Install DVD Dual Layer, and/or
Blu-Ray, to make more simple the instalation and do not need 2 Standar
DVD??
Exist an method to add the Disk1.iso and Disk2.iso to Make the "Only One
Disk" making a new "Dual Layer DVD.iso" ??
Waiting for your comments,

Hello,
We had to make choices based on popularity of media, size of media, and
overall size in the iso directory. In short, we had to make a choice for
media that the majority of people have, without making our iso directory so
big that people won't mirror us.
But, can *you* are someone you know, make a SL 6.0 blue-ray image?
Yes you can.
We included revisor along with sl-revisor-configs so that you could easily
make your own spin of SL6.
Our instructions are here.
http://www.scientificlinux.org/distributions/6x/build/sites
We will be expanding the instructions, but for a basic respin onto a
different media, there is enough instructions there.
All you have to do is replace the option "--install-dvd" with any (or all
if you have the space) of the following options.
--install-cd
--install-dvd
--install-dvd-dl
--install-bluray
--install-bluray-dl
--install-usb
you can find all the options by typing "revisor --help"
Hope this answers your question.
Troy
