Something like (that was for 5.x): mount $MYISO /mnt/cdrom -t iso9660 -o loop cp -a /mnt/cdrom /tmp/cdrom cp ks.cfg /tmp/cdrom/ vim isolinux/isolinux.cfg default linux ks=cdrom:/ks.cfg # Not sure if still need or why: chmod u+w isolinux/* cd /tmp mkisofs -o full.iso -b isolinux/isolinux.bin -c isolinux/boot.cat -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table -R -J -v -T cdrom JD _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS at centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
