Multi-ISO live DVD

["Robert G. (Doc) Savage" <dsavage@peaknet.net>]

Here's an interesting (and HUGE) download:

http://alt.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/mega-dvd-test/Fedora-14-Live-multi/

At 5.5GB it's much too large for a standard DVD. You have to burn it to
a Dual-Layer 8.5GB disc. It boots to a GRUB menu that allows you to boot
any one of eight different F14 Live CDs in either 32-bit or 64-bit
format.

Note that due to a capability limitation in the livecd-iso-to-disk
utility, you cannot install this ISO image to an 8GB (or larger) USB
thumb drive. To use it you must burn it to a disc, and the target
machine must have a DL-capable optical drive. I've submitted a Request
for Enhancement (RFE) to upgrade the l-i-t-d utility to handle complex
GRUB-based ISO formats like this. See
