CD to DVD Media

The following script (mkdvdiso.sh) has been tested for CentOS 4 and 5 i386 to create DVD ISO images from CD images, or from an installation tree, and on CentOS 6, or recent CentOS-5 versions, for creating a single DVD ISO, suitable for dual-layer burners, from the two DVDs. Recent CentOS-5 versions will also require dual-layer media for the DVD ISO created from the eight CD ISOs. If the installation tree does not contain a .discinfo file, one must be obtained from the top level of a CD or DVD.


Usage: mkdvdiso.sh source /destination/DVD.iso

# A quick hack that will create a bootable DVD iso of a Red Hat Linux
# Distribution. Feed it either a directory containing the downloaded
# iso files of a distribution, or point it at a directory containing
# the "RedHat", "isolinux", and "images" directories.

# This version only works with "isolinux" based Red Hat Linux versions.

# Lots of disk space required to work, 3X the distribution size at least.

# GPL version 2 applies. No warranties, yadda, yadda. Have fun.

# Modified to add sanity checks and fix CentOS4 syntax errors

# TODO:
#   Add checks for available disk space on devices holding output and
#       temp files.
#   Add optional 3rd parameter to specify location of temp directory.
#   Create .discinfo if not present.
