I want/need an old release (CentOS 5.2) to install as a VirtualBox guest.
I suppose I could install from the cd iso images, but it is a pain to virtually eject and remount cd iso images during the install :-(
So, is there a technique or an open source tool that will create a dvd iso given the cd iso images?
I've seen the DVD ISO files on select mirrors. it can be difficult to reliably transfer a> 4GB file over http/ftp

I routinely do 4 GB plus transfers using https and ftp. Rock solid. One thing i do is the gui install..choose minimal then choose custom. uncheck everything and you'll get a machine with access to a shell and then you can yum everything else. Only need disk 1.
