I haven't checked, but the other arch that imediately came to my mind when doing this was VAX, and the CD image (including debug sets) fits just fine there. Could you create a list of architectures where DVD is unlikely and CD image does not fit? We also should (as suggestes by mrg@) add secondary debug CD images for those ports. Martin
