Okay...I just remastered my own Knoppix distro for use as a Windows rescue cd. The source for the ISO will reside on a server that takes requests from other techs in my dept. Each tech via a webpage will enter in their own username and password and other customized settings for their own offices. Once the request is recieved by the server a cron job will trigger a customized ISO for that user having their own username and password...etc.

When I did this before with Timos Rescue CD I always used ZISOFS to compress the ISO image...but I noticed Knoppix uses cloop which to me seems to take MUCH MUCH longer to compress and create an ISO. I was wondering if I can just take the source and use ZISOFS instead of cloop?

Haven't tried it yet but wanted to see if someone else tried it and was successful?

Thanx!

okay...so i've tried and it doesn't work...has anyone else tried this? basically i need a compressed knoppix image but using cloop takes entirely too long for me...being it will be a production release i need the compression stage to go much faster than it does now
