Just yesterday I put Debian 2.0 (main + contrib; binary-i386 +
disks-i386) on a CD-ROM, flattening symlinks from i386 to all,
plus kernel 2.1.90 and patches up to 2.1.96 (bz2, not gzip), and
all of that fitted on 636 MB. There are a few missing files, and
hamm is still changing. I was testing a CD-R and I wanted the
test files to be something worthy ;-). Oh, yes, I also pruned the
Packages files (I left just Packages.gz)
You need hamm/main/binary-i386, hamm/main/binary-all,
hamm/contrib/binary-i386, hamm/contrib/binary-all,
hamm/main/disks-i386. indices and doc are good to have, too.
For my next CD, I hope I remember to throw in
project/experimental/apt*_i386.deb, too.
