Yes... I know the way you can mount an iso image (I have done a couple of times yesterday in fact)... but I'm really worried about how making a consistent copy of it like I did with tar... as I said this is for an unattended installation system... so I cannot be depending on having the cd mounted on the operating system... with tar the -p option was important for preserving permissions, flags, and so... perhaps now... should mount like you said before for example.... and later having an rsync compiled with file flag preserving support do an rsync -av /cd-mount-point /disk-place-to-copy-cd-content ?? this last is the real question... I have played previously several times with memory disks mappings, mdconfig and those staff.... but how to make a consistent copy of the cd for the unattended installation system... Thanks again, Best regards,
