A vote for X-cdroast....
If this don't git me Idiot of the Month nothin' will.....
While this would be beyond my own abilities,I'd really like to see a dsl of X-cdroast, though it may be just too huge. I use it to build my dsl CDs in an odd way- I use cdrecord to burn a stock standard dsl iso to cdr. I copy the whole thing back to a working directory on my Linux distro. I shovel lots of other subdirectories (like /optional) and Skins and configs into this working directory. I use X-cdroast to master a new CD to my liking. X-cdroast can make the whole master iso track bootable. Burn it. Then delete the master track.
You end up with a clean standard DSL CD which you can use for dsl package build, and one with all your extras on. Plus a structure on your hard drive that you can add new dsl packages to as they mature,or anything else for that matter. Then easily make a new CD with the latest tricks on it. You have not used any windows iso manipulating programs. You have not faffed around with multi-session. Although there are some very good ways I've seen on these forums to use cdrecord/multisession. It is just an almost completely graphical way to get the same result.
Wastefull?- Perhaps! (one cd ? and 50-150 meg HD space) Moronic?- For sure!
I just want to see if there are any other X-cdroast fans out there who could make a dsl package of it.... If it's even possible! I'd really like to be able to use XcdR under DSL.
