It's on my computer upstairs: a self-created bootable DVD ISO image combined
from the first three Mandrake 10.0 CDs.

Got Bittorrent?

/----------How To Create A Mandrake DVD-Image--------------------------
|
| 1. create five directories for the mounted iso-files:
|
| mkdir cd1 cd2 cd3 cd4 cd5
|
| 2. mount your iso-files:
|
| mount -o ro,loop /path/to/CD1.iso cd1
| mount -o ro,loop /path/to/CD2.iso cd2
| mount -o ro,loop /path/to/CD3.iso cd3
| mount -o ro,loop /path/to/CD4.iso cd4
| mount -o ro,loop /path/to/CD5.iso cd5
|
| 3. copy the needed boot files:
|
| cp -a cd1/isolinux .
| rm -f isolinux/boot.cat
|
| 4. create a DVD iso-file (all one line, wrapped for better display):
|
| mkisofs -o Mandrake_10.0_Official.iso -b isolinux/isolinux.bin\
| -c isolinux/boot.cat -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4\
| -boot-info-table -J -l -P Mandrake -r -V Mandrake_10.0\

| Boot/=cd2/Boot Mandrake/=cd2/Mandrake Mandrake/=cd3/Mandrake\
| Mandrake/=cd4/Mandrake Mandrake/=cd5/Mandrake
|
| 5. burn, install, enjoy!

I would assume that you could remove the entries for cd4/5 if you dont
have them.

They install off the CDs and then create the DVD.

That's not the point. If they want to burn a DVD in windows, to be able
to install Linux, fine. It's still a question to be asked in a windows
newsgroup. See?

Nope, I don't know how to do it in windows, and don't want to know. I
don't care about windows, that's the point. The person needs to ask how
to do a windows task in a windows newsgroup, can you understand that?

Right, tasks needed to switch to using Mandrake Linux have nothing to do
with a group about Mandrake Linux.

A task like burning a DVD in windows certainly has nothing to do with
Mandrake. Why is it so hard for you to understand that?

At _most_ the last couple of steps might not, even then they would only
be a conclusion of "run x then run y" that fits with the overall topic of
making a Mandrake install DVD.
