Hi all,
I can create a very nice DVD with Pungi if I don't specify the number of discs to use. I'm running F8 with pungi-1.1.9 that comes with F8. I figure that right number of discs for a respin of what comes with F8 should be five. When I ask for five discs "--discs=5", I get a DVD sized disc1 and the rest have empty Packages directories. I also get a DVD ISO file, but the size of DISC1 and DVD, different from each other, isn't the size of the DVD when requested alone. I can't tell if the problem is in Pungi or Splitdistro. When I do the SRPMS stage using five discs, I get five proper CD sized ISO files and a proper DVD ISO file. Any ideas?
TIA.

Interesting. Do you have a part of type iso in your kickstart file? Without a defined iso part size, pungi doesn't target any specific size.

I have: part iso --size=70000 Needless to say, I've been playing with the size with no joy.
Thanks.

Ok. I'm perfectly willing to accept that there might be bugs in the split media code path. I haven't used pungi to make split media in quite a few pungi releases (since Fedora doesn't create them) so I could have screwed something up. I'll be testing that code path maybe this weekend to see if I can figure out what's going on.

Oops. I should have commented in the .ks file that the size is in megs. You just asked for a 70gig~ CD size (: I did a run with size=690 and got properly sized isos. Can you try again?
Also, there is an updated release of pungi in updates-testing for F8 that corrects the config file to point at the released repos, and a few other minor bugfixes. Can you please use that for your retry?

I don't see the new pungi in either the i386 or SRPMS directories on updates testing. I'll stand by for another location and keep checking for it to be pushed. I think I've been able to talk my user base out of Cd's, but it's probably a good idea to test it thoroughly.
Thanks for the help.

Looks like the push is still ongoing. You can steal it directly from the koji store (a signed version even!):

OK, I don't know if it was the new version or that I specified the size correctly this time. Five proper ISOs were built plus a DVD. The strange thing is that, when I ask for discs, I get a DVD over 2MB larger than if I just ask for the DVD. A simple ls -1R of the two loop mounted trees compares the same. Go figure.
I'd like to take this opportunity to say how much I enjoy being able to use Pungi. I've been at this project since RHL-7.1, hacking shell scripts to use buildinstall and the other tools. Now, all I have to do is to make some minor adjustments to the KS file, wrap the command and its arguments into a script that I call "pungify" and I'm good to go.
Thanks again.

I had a problem when makes repoview .. after that I try pungi with this option -BPI which fails on makedirs every time. This patch correct this , and is safe to use it, please apply it.

I'm currently working on a better method of detecting a re-run to an existing destdir. It will obsolete the attached patch. Thanks though!
