Make FC6 CD set from a DVD

[John Wendel]

I've got an FC6 installation DVD, but I need the installation CD set. 
Can someone post the proper incantation(s) for making the CDs using 
the DVD as input or point me in the right direction?

Thanks,

John

I have seen various mkisofs commands posted, but I don't know if any
work. Unless you are very bandwidth restricted, I would just download
the installation CDs.

The thing is, the exact process is a bit complicated due to the split
procedure. You might not get the same image as the official isos.

There are efforts to automate this process a bit, a decent sized
python script [1]  I hope that as it develops it can standardize the
procedure for things like this.

I haven't tried the hard drive install method but I just uncompressed the
DVD.iso to a web server and did a local network install.  The boot.iso is
used to make the boot disk, also included in the DVD.iso.
