Re: [TCLUG:10063] RedHat/Sparc mirror



Thanks!  Should be as simple as: 
`dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/path/to/outputfile.iso`
That ought to preserve the data the same as it was on the cd-rom so I
doubt it'd affect the bootability of the image.

There's some funny solaris bootable cdrom instructions.  I'm not too sure
how different sparc Linux would be.  Check out more info here:
