TODO list :
-----------
+ put the doc directory only on the first binary CD
+ a way to force the inclusion of packages (even broken)
+ possibility to add project/* to the last CD
Bugs / Problems :
-----------------
* make list will not add contrib packages if you do not
select NONFREE too. That's because contrib is broken
without non-free. And the building process only allow
functional packages to be added.
Technical choices :
-------------------
For the multiboot on the first CD of an i386 CD set, we had two options
isolinux and el-torito native multiboot. We selected isolinux
because it works well and it lets you display information to the user.
The el-torito multiboot just displays a menu with each item
being the same "2.88Mb boot image". Both multiboot mechanism may
not work on older hardware with very old BIOSes however the el-torito
one works a bit better because it's usually able to boot the first choice
without displaying the menu then.
