I will probably try this next.

...But frankly, this means the amount of effort involved is high enough
that the time it takes to just burn a DVD to do the same thing makes
things awash at best and likely in favor of just burning the DVD.

So, it will be good for making something work if you have to.

Wonder if we can take the process and script it or just add it to the
existing tools as another option. Perhaps for F14...? In any case, the
current situation means we have an error in the documentation that
should probably be fixed.

Cheers,

Chris
