Thanks. I'll try that. Umm... any idea how I would try that? I don't see any menu options in GnomeBaker for creating a UDF file system. I tried installing K3b, created a DVD project, changed the DVD Size to 8.0 GB, and checked the "Generate UDF structures" checkbox under the "Filesystem" tab of the project properties. When I click on my 6.5GB tarball, I get a message that says "It is not possible to add files bigger than 4 GB" I would be glad to use command line tools to do this. (Actually, I would _prefer_ to use command line tools, but I just assumed that the GUI tools had more users pounding on them.) I am open to suggestions... --wpd
