(CC'd to debian-boot since the discussion there seems to be lingering on this topic too.)
Per discussion on debian-cd, I have prepared a test ISO and changes to debian-cd to allow the use of ISOLINUX in the boot sector. The changes to debian-cd are at: http://www.lordsutch.com/cds/debian-cd/isolinux-bits.tar.gz (You only need these to build an ISO from a local mirror. I'll probably commit this to debian-cd cvs if Raphael says it's OK; the only file changed is tools/boot/woody/boot-i386, while the remainder is filched & modified from boot-floppies CVS or is new) The CD image (updated to ensure the prompt shows up) is available at: http://www.phy.olemiss.edu/debian-cd/woody-i386-1.raw Size: 194281472 bytes MD5SUM: 37f463f20265d8b3e2300cd304783ba9 Also at rsync://www.phy.olemiss.edu/debian-cd/ The rsync should be very fast if you have the previous image. (If you have the old image, you need to hold down SHIFT to get the boot: prompt to show up.) Don't worry about killing the server; I'll throttle it if necessary. See http://lists.debian.org/debian-cd/2002/debian-cd-200204/msg00067.html for all the details of how this is implemented.
