You can replicate a cd by burning it directly. It is not exclusively connected with ELX, but rather, the other way round, where whatever it is that's called ELX is on cd, and an iso image, or several iso images exist of it. There's also an interesting piece of technogeek here. Many of us may never have heard of an ELX distribution but instantly associate the words together as meaning just that. -- http://linux.nf -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] _ Do You Yahoo!?

Short for iso image. Each iso image must be downloaded to your system, then you can use cd burner software (I use cdrecord) to burn the image to a cd-rom. Elx has two images - the initial bootable install cd-rom and the second cd-rom containing other packages to complete the installation. You're looking at 2-3 hours download time (on cable - much longer on a 56K link) plus 15-20 minutes to burn the cd-roms. Then you can install elx - under 2 hours for complete install. -- Collins Richey - Denver Area WWTLRD? - ELX-1 system k2.4.17+xfce+sylpheed ___ Linux-users mailing list Archives, Digests, etc at http://linux.nf/mailman/listinfo/linux-users

Just another thought. If you are not running from a linux system, you can download and burn the iso images from a Windows system, of course. The EZ-CD Creator software. for example, works just fine for burning iso images. -- Collins Richey - Denver Area WWTLRD? - ELX-1 system k2.4.17+xfce+sylpheed ___ Linux-users mailing list Archives, Digests, etc at http://linux.nf/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
