The whole distribution just barely fits on one CD - if everything is recompressed with lzma. So it is likely that you would be able to put a sizeable subset of the distribution + sources on the CD - as long as you don't need, say, the xorg packages. In this case, I doubt that the ISO images I'm creating are going to be much use to you though. cgf -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
