I vaguely remember some sort of generic "network block device" thing running around in the kernel. Perhaps that could be fiddled to suit your needs. Alternately, do what we do - person who wants to burn SSHes into the box with the burner in it, and runs 'burncd <image>' - burncd being a wrapper script I wrote for cdrecord. Works tastily for me. If you need a helping hand making the image, I'm sure xcdroast or whatever you use could write the image to a file rather than a disc. I guess you could write a webpage that would accept an image and burn it, but I don't think that's a really practical solution (file size limits come to mind). -- To mess up a Linux box, you need to work at it; to mess up your Windows box, you just need to work on it. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
