As explained no DVD will be available soon. Some people still would like
to have a DVD instead of a CD.

I have written a script that does this for you. It is very basic at this
moment. Known issues with the script.

1) The calculation of the script is not correct
2) Root password is needed for the mounting
3) Only tested with 10.0Beta2

If this script is accepted, or a script that does the same but is much
better written, it could go under the /tools directory. If
create_package_descr would be in a tgz file, that could be there as well
and then people who do NOT have SUSE (and therefore no
create_package_descr) can still make a DVD.

The file can be downloaded from http://houghi.org/script/makeSUSEdvd

I would love to hear comments on this. I know I am a bad coder and some
things will be better done in a different way. I just do not know that
way.

So please test http://houghi.org/script/makeSUSEdvd and get it working
even better.
