exactly.  i'll fix my wiki page to emphasize that, while you need to
install the jigdo *package*, the command you run is "jigdo-lite".  i
didn't bother with the GUI front-end.

rday

p.s.  it's still not clear if jigdo-lite is capable of using the mount
point that is automatically created by inserting the original DVD,
given that the mount point name has embedded spaces, which is why i
suggest that you need to unmount the DVD, then manually mount it back
under something like /mnt.

has anyone got this to work using the original mount point, which is
something like "/media/Fedora 8 x86_64 DVD"?  that would simplify
things.
