Hi All,

I am curious. After changing a couple lines in the KnoppMyth-auto file, I would like to build a new CD and test it.

My CD Burner is on my windows box and I have Roxio 5 Easy CD Creator software.

Can I just copy all the files from the original R4.2 Knoppmyth cd to a directory on my hard drive. Make a couple changes. And then burn all this back to a new bootable CD?

Is there anything special about the bootable CD?

Thanks for any replies,
jpummill2

Ok, answering my own post again...

Here is what I found on creating a new bootable cd...

http://www.knoppix.net/docs/index.php/Bootable%20CD

Looks like you can use mkisofs with a boot image (boot.img) file to rebuild the CD. Makes sense.

Learn something every day... :)

If you intend to distribute your remaster, please remove the Hauppauge Windows drivers.

Hi cesman,

I am trying to remaster a CD so that I can test my changes to the install.

If it works, I would like to just give the code back to you and see if you wanted to add it to a future release.

Just curious, why remove the Hauppauge windows drivers???

Because I sign a license to distribute the drivers with KnoppMyth.
