One thing to remember is that typically your local directory /var/lib/YAST2/you/mnt will have only those patches, that you have previously selected (or accepted) for download. That means there will be some patches that have just not been downloaded and therefor will not be on that disk. That's probably fine for this particular machine, but not if this CD is meant to be a generic YOU-CD. If you want it to be generic make sure that you have selected "download all available patches" in YOU prior to creating the CD. Greetings from Bremen hartmut
