Hello all!

Okay, so I pretty much downloaded everything for both 2.2.8R and 3.2R of
FreeBSD (or course).  Now I'd like to burn the goods onto cdrom to make
installation disks.  Does anyone have any tips on this?  Also, what's the
best method to burn the packages onto cdrom?  I downloaded about a gig's
worth of pacakges and I'm not sure on how to span them across several disk.
 What directory struture format should I retain?  Any tips and tricks would
help. Thanks!

Joey

P.S. Just to let you guys at Walnut Creek know, I was downloading at about
30 kps average of a cablemodem (Mediaone/Roadrunner).  I have gotten better
download rates than that though.  I used to get up to 100+ kps.
