The new iso-image code recently committed by Manuel Bouyer builds small CD-ROM images in RELEASEDIR/MACHINE/install/cdrom/*, and large CD-ROM images in RELEASEDIR/iso/*. The small images tend to be for exactly one platform, and contain a kernel, sysinst, some crunchgenned tools, but not *.tgz sets. The large images contain *.tgz sets, and could in principle be multi-platform. releases(7) doesn't talk about RELEASEDIR/iso at all. I'd like to update it, but first I'd like to understand the difference between the two locations. Given a CD-ROM image, how would you determine which directory it belongs in, and how would you choose the file name? --apb (Alan Barrett)
