Hello we used to create CD and DVD ISO images with the help of debian-cd on a local mirror. However, when trying to update to the current version of debian-cd, this fails because [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/cdr/debian$ export CVSROOT=:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvs/debian-boot [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/cdr/debian$ cvs login Logging in to :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:2401/cvs/debian-boot CVS password: cvs [login aborted]: connect to cvs.debian.org(192.25.206.10):2401 failed: Connection refused Perhaps the CVS port 2401 on cvs.debian.org is now behind a firewall after the recent attacks ? Unfortunately I cannot give you a static IP since we only have DSL dailup. How can I upgrade to a current debian-cd version - is there a location with a current .deb package available ? Since there are no .jigdos for 3.0r2 DVD (and there probably won't be any in the forseeable future :), debian-cd is currently the only solution for us, so please don't direct me to jigdo-lite ;-) Thanks+Regards Bernd Hentig --- ixsoft Softwareentwicklung und -vertrieb Bernd Hentig * Ihr Spezialist für Linux und BSD * Unter den Buchen 22E, D-16244 Altenhof, Germany Voice ++49 333 63 46 100 Fax ++49 333 63 46 109 eMail [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Status of the images for CDs and DVDs
Hi! The recovery of the functionality of our servers is taking long, we still don't have gluck.debian.org/cdimage back, however that doesn't mean we have stopped making images, in fact, we are now able to produce DVD images as well. While we don't recover gluck.debian.org/cdimage you can find the new images at http://people.debian.org/~manty/testing/ currently there are only i386 and ia64 images, but as soon as debian-installer images of alpha, powerpc and others are produced, I'll start building CDs and DVDs for those as well. I have started producing jigdos for DVDs, they are made for the standard 4.7GB DVDs, so you can have sarge binaries in one and a half DVD, or you can record it all in a double sided DVD, if anybody finds other needs, please comment them. The new tree for the images is like this: testing/ netinst/ $ARCH/ daily/ ISOs jigdo-area/ $ARCH/ JIGDOs dvd/ jigdo-area/ $ARCH/ JIGDOs This can of course be changed if anybody sugest a more logical one. I have made and tested the DVDs at Extremadura (home of Linex) during the first Debconf-ES, they worked perfectly, the only problem I found is that the 2.4.22 doesn't mount the DVD-R or DVD-RW disks on some DVD readers (at least some pioneer slot in) when using auto as the filesystem type. This has been corrected on 2.4.23, and can be workarounded by changing the fs type in /etc/fstab from auto to iso9660, or by avoiding this convination of hardware via using DVD+R or DVD+RW, for example. I'd like to comment on the bug we had with the debian-installer beta-1 cds, which weren't bootable on some machines, for what I saw, this was not isolinux fault, the businesscard cds were carrying the same isolinux and had been made using the very same isolinux options and were not failing, farther more, the netinst images made prior or after the beta-1 seem to work again. I'd like to get this tested by some other people than me, by downloading the daily netinst images we are producing now and testing them in one of the machines that didn't want to boot out of the beta-1 cds. I don't know what happened to the beta-1 cds, looking at the images everything seems ok, I tried to contact upstream of mkisofs and isolinux without luck. It seems to me either a bug in the BIOS or in mkisofs, I'll try to make more tests, but it seems quite difficult for me to find the exact problem, if anybody with more experience in bootable cds can help he is welcome to do so. Well, I think that is all for now. Regards... -- Manty/BestiaTester -> http://manty.net -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

burninc CD's on FreeBSD and jigdo port
Hi, I read this FAQ: http://www.debian.org/CD/faq/ and I noticed there is no information on burning CD's on FreeBSD. On FreeBSD, (I believe because there's no SCSI emulation for IDE CD-ROM burners, so cdrecord won't work on many systems) burning CD's with an ATAPI CD burner is done with a command line like this: burncd -f /dev/acd0 data binary-i386-1.iso fixate or, if it's the second CD drive: burncd -f /dev/acd1 data binary-i386-1.iso fixate More information in the FreeBSD handbook: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/creating-cds.html (this also provides very nice information on using cdrecord by the way) or the burncd man page of course. By the way, FreeBSD has a port for jigdo in /usr/ports/ftp/jigdo Change to: /usr/ports/ftp/jigdo and type: make install I just installed jigdo 0.7.0 from this port and it's working now :-) Greetings, Bas Eindhoven, The Netherlands. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Jigdo template size problem
Hi, All sarge i386 .template files generated after December 5 are ~600Mb in size, is this inentional? Also is it possible to generate template files locally?
