DVD Boot Mandrake 10.0 live dvd?
This is a discussion about DVD Boot Mandrake 10.0 live dvd? in the Everything Linux category; Is this possible? To put all three ISO images on to one DVD? And if so, can you show me? I'm new within the past 24 hours and I'm just learning about live discs and beleive I saw something about burning a bootable DVD with mandrake but there are three ISO's and I'm trying to use Nero6.

I think maybe I saw it on another site before I got here at this one.

OP
Sorry, thanks for looking. I figured I need a DVD 2GB ISO instead of the three.
Acyually, this is a good question. What if DVD images are not available? I tried this with Mandrake using mkiso at the command line and never could get a good DVD burn.
This is one of the things that has elluded me.
Anyone got a good method?

I have done this with every release of Mandrake since 9.2
There is a script made for redhat that does the trick called
mkdvdiso.sh from ftp://people.redhat.com/ckloiber/
You will need the ISO files & this script, also enough hard drive space to create the DVD.iso.
Open a terminal & become root.
Here is the command I use;
sh mkdvdiso.sh /home/dave/isos /home/dave/dvd.iso growisofs -Z /dev/scd0=/home/dave/dvd.iso
/home/dave/isos is the folder where I put the cd.iso's & DVD.iso
is the final image to be burned at no more than 4x, any faster & you will get errors during the Mandrake install.
Hope this helps.

Thanks for the tip.
I will give this a try! The commands that I used and found were slightly different.

I forgot to mention this is for HD install only.
It does not make a Live DVD.
Mandrake Move is used for that purpose.
