If there's a better list for this, please let me know (and sorry for the wasted b/w). (Yes, I did search the list archives, but didn't find anything.) As you might know, Lehmanns is selling FreeBSD CD-ROM sets for the German-speaking market. Currently (4.4-Release), the set consists of six CDs, which is the maximum for a standard double jewel case. It's just a question of time when we'll exceed this limit. There are, of course, possibilities to package more than six CDs (cardboard packs, fleece packs like those from Sun/Solaris etc.), but all of them have disadvantages, so this is not the way we want to go -- instead, we would like to make a DVD-ROM. (Possibly in combination, i.e. five CD-ROMs with the most important stuff, plus one DVD-ROM with all of it.) I assume that the filesystem used on DVD-ROMs is just a huge ISO9660 file system (please, someone correct me if I'm wrong). I can make this with mkisofs, right? How do I make it bootable -- is the "El Torito" standard supported for DVD-ROMs as well, so I can just use the -b option of mkisofs? To sum it up: Can I simply pretend that a DVD-ROM is no more than a huge CD-ROM? Sorry if those questions are stupid, but I'm a newbie in DVD production. :-) Many thanks in advance for any hint and advice!
