I don't think the difference between the two is particularly relevant. make release will make an directory suitable to put on a CD or DVD. It's just that if you use a DVD you can fit a lot more packages/distfiles on the disk (which make release doesn't do for you anyway). Try it and see :) I'm not sure if sysinstall groks UDF either, so I think it would be wise to put at an ISO9660 compat FS on the disk. -- Daniel O'Connor software and network engineer for Genesis Software - http://www.gsoft.com.au "The nice thing about standards is that there are so many of them to choose from." -- Andrew Tanenbaum GPG Fingerprint - 9A8C 569F 685A D928 5140 AE4B 319B 41F4 5D17 FDD5
