any chance to "upgrade" from a -r10 image ?
i just can't afford to download those even relatively small
images all the time...
i wouldn't mind keeping my machine busy with compilations though.

btw, did the mkisofs options change since _rc5 ?
just because i wanna put a snapshot of my portage-tree
(including the distfiles)
on the bootable cd as well.

thanks and ciao
peter

These CD's are just basically refinements to the install process, nothing
more.  If you use -r11 you are not necessarily getting a newer system than
if you used the -r10 iso.  Both ISOs contain the -r7 build image.  However,
sometimes I *will* update bootstrap.sh and the bootstrap files, which does
result in a newer system for some people.  For example, you probably have
baselayout 1.6.1, but anyone who installs today will get baselayout 1.6.2
which contains slightly improved system initialization scripts.

No; it should be the same as rc5, except that the kernel is at /isolinux/kernel
and the initrd is at /isolinux/rescue.gz.
