That's almost always easier said than done: you can test things you create (or in this case, package together) for your own purposes on your own hardware, but inevitably someone somewhere will have a combination of hardware, software, and personal requirements that will make - whatever it was you took the trouble to test in all ways you could - fail. I do have a suggestion for using the oversize .iso file, which may be how it was intended to be used (or as was suggested already, it may be oversized due only to carelessness, but I think my suggestion will work anyway): leave the .iso on a regular file system on a hard disk, boot the system from either floppy, or from the CD of a previous Slackware version, mount the partition containing the oversized .iso file somewhere out of the way, then mount the .iso itself via the loopback interface. You'll need to leave the partition mounted with the .iso file untouched while you install -current, but if you have extra disk space that may not be a problem. The disclaimer, of course, is that I've not tried this myself, so I don't want to accept any credit unless it works. ;-) -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Sylvain Robitaille syl@alcor.concordia.ca Systems analyst Concordia University Instructional & Information Technology Montreal, Quebec, Canada ---------------------------------------------------------------------- |
