The principal objective is that there is no need to constrain the builds to the size limits of a CDROM. A USB stick image something between CD and DVD would also be appropriate. The point is that the above does *not* mean that CD images are required - just that images somewhat smaller than a DVD would be useful. -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/
