I've done it with kickstart. I just copied all the cd's into one directory. I used something like cp -rp. Go to that directory and you should be able to burn . onto your dvd and it should work. I'll try to find my docs on this issue. I can't quite remeber all the details but It was quite easy.
type: mkdir /dvd
insert the cdrom
type: mount cdrom
type: cd /[mount point of cdrom]
type: cp -rp * /dvd
Repet steps for each cd it might complain about overwriting some files so just answer yes to overide.
That's what I did for kickstart. Your part is figuring out how to burn it to dvd, or somebody else can help you with that. I don't have a burner @ this time. Any problems or questions feel free to shoot me an email.
seriously though, you aren't alone in that wish, there are a few forums on the web that deal with this, but ... i couldn't find anything for windows ...
