Thanks
This is my .discinfo file. Seems all to be there.

mydistro/pixmaps
I am trying to follow your next hint and try to splitdistro it. I would like
to make one CD (and yes I'm making a RH9 based distro). I got the
splitdistro script to run but it splits the distro over 2 discs and then
stops with an error (see below):
Splitting tree...
Creating disc1...
Creating disc2...
648.0
91.8131446838
1.2
10.0
544.986855316
first to move to disc2 is ooo-dictionaries-1.0.3-0.ximian.6.5.noarch.rpm
Creating disc3...
first to move to disc3 is
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/anaconda-runtime/splitdistro", line 244, in ?
print "first to move to disc3 is", disc3pkgs[0]
IndexError: list index out of range
My questions:
1. How can I keep splitdistro from separating my distro over more than one
discs and
2. What do I need to do to get splitdistro finishing properly without
errors?
Thanks
