Thanks for the info. It took about 4 hours or so to create two DVD-sized images: one about 4.3GB the second was about 1.8GB. This included verifying each image.How do you call lzop when running mondoarchive. I usually use the gui cause I'm lazy...
I just looked, and couldn't find a way to do it from the gui. Doesn't mean it isn't there, just couldn't find it. I'll ask Hugo and let you know. If you are running from the command line it is something like #mondoarchive -Or -d /dev/dvdrecorder -F -L -s 4200 It's the -L that does it. it's not as pretty this way, but it sure works. I'm an old CLI sort of guy for a lot of things like this..
One other thing, I got an error stating that the boot+data floppies weren't created but when I looked in the mindi dir they were there, including the two 25Mb iso images. Any thoughts?
Not to worry. The reason it can't create them is that the kernel is too big to fit on one floppy nowadays. It will create the 2.88 size disk though.. It prints the warning just in case. I've got it too. I also don't create the floppies so that also creates a message for me. That mindi iso is quite nice for a quick fix type CD. I usually burn it onto one of those mini-cd's and keep it around. That way I know I'm booting with a known good kernel.
