If anyone is really interested in remastering their own CDs it only takes about 3 minutes of google to come up with all the documentation and how-to's you could ever want. Believe me, if building your own distro was all that difficult there wouldn't be four hundred gazillion different distros out there. I can definitely understand Johnny's POV on the subject. But hell, even _I_ could BMOD (Build My Own Distro) if I weren't so damned lazy. Hey. BMOD Linux. Kinda has a ring to it. If I ever get around to acquiring a DVD burner of some kind I might take a stab at it. Or not. I really am very lazy. -- Boring Home Page - http://www.webtrek.com/joe See my blog, sumo game ranks and other interesting junk
