So now the 'fun' begins? :-) As I said - I have seen several people say that writing CD iso(s) to DVD disk(s) works. When I first say that I tried several times, to test this only, but I was not ever been able to do that successfully. And, to me, it just seems as if it should not work and a waste of my time. BTW - A Fedora 12 Live-DVD was talked about sometime ago. It was supposed to allow room for both the GNOME and KDE desktops. I did not see the resulting final decision. As many threads do it meandered OT and I lost interest in the OT. :-) -- David
