That's currently basically impossible since our UFS implementation cannot cope with 2048-byte hard-sectored media like CD-ROMs are. Other than this, it's as simple as vnconfig'ing a large file, newfs'ing it, mounting the file system, and finally dump the file to the CD-R. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
