Remembering me beeing a newbe some years ago, too, I liked it very much
to see the real / before me and directly seeing where things are
mounted and it made error-recovery very easily. I do not know, if I had
managed it, if I had to understand the jail and the need to use the
escape from it or even us trickery like /..

Amiga CD

[Todd H. Knight]

  I just wondered how I would go about building an Amiga CD image, how many CD's are 
available/required for the Amiga setup, and since I already know how to burn an ISO on 
a WinBox (ie: just burn it as an ISO =), are the images available in ISO format for 
download somewhere I haven't looked already?

  The way it looks now, I've got to download everything on the Amiga first, then build 
an ISO image on the Amiga (which has no CD writer), then break the image(s) down into 
more manageable parts (see next step), then move everything to the 486 via the serial 
bridge (33.6k MAX) which ALSO doesn't have a CD writer, then ethernet everything over 
to the Pentium, then rebuild the image from the previously moved ISO component 
parts--assuming all segments have transferred properly the first time--then burn the 
CD.

  My idea is this:

  Download the ISO to the WinBox.  Burn the CD.

  Is this possible?

Sure - unless I'm missing something and the regular m68k images aren't
suitable for you because you have special requirements.

Finished m68k ISOs are available both for stable and testing. The
exact download locations are a bit hard to find; look at
.

If you decide to download 2.2r4 and your PC already runs Debian, it'd
be great if you could try out my new "jigdo" download procedure.

Cheers,

  Richard
