I and rday are going to write a help file using this jigdo
method to
make your own respin of any Fedora version. But I have problems.
Rday says you need to mount the F8 DVD on /mnt/. On my computer it
automatically mounts on /media/. I fix that in a root terminal by
#umount name-of-DVD and it works fine.
My problem is I can't find the proper things to mount the DVD to
/mnt/. I thought I could find the right things in /etc/fstab but they
are not listed there any more :-)
Does anyone know how to do the mount function on a DVD?
Karl,
this should help you with your project.
Using Jigdo to Download Re-Spin ISOs
http://fedorasolved.org/post-install-solutions/jigdo/
Sorry it does not help. Jigsaw seems to want a url and when I give it
a /media/name/packages/ it says Not a proper URL. Perhaps I need to add
some "" but really I need a way to mount the DVD.
Karl
If you are looking at what I *think* that you are looking at here the
URL is:
http://jigdo.fedoraunity.org/templates/20071218/Fedora-Unity-20071218-8.jigdo
As for the dvd - does it not mount when you put it in the drive? If not
mount it yourself. The answer to one of the other questions asked is the
path to the dvd.
The DVD is mounted to /media/ automatic upon putting the DVD in the
reader.
Now the http you show is a real hodge-podge of stuff and I have no idea
how that will help me. But I will try it.
As for writing instructions for this task, I first must be able to DO it
:-)
The URL is the link to the jigdo file download templates. The script
that runs needs those files because they contain the iso template, the
paths data for the new files, and the 'selection' that lets you tell the
script what you want to download and create.
Good luck. ;-)

That is well and good. That web page full of images is interesting.
How do I write a help section on choosing what to extract from that page?
