That's the guide I used.
Hi. I have a strange problem -- in previous versions of knppix, I extracted the compressed file system on the cd, made the kernel changes and then recompressed successfully. NOw if I just extract and then do a mkisofs -- after changing only two small files and the kernel, it comes out about 4 megs larger than before, and so it compresses much bigger.
Does anyone know what I am doing wrong.
I use mkisofs -r -o <filename> <place where I extracted the compressed system>
Also, I saw a post about a remastering howto -- where is this to be found?
Any assistance would be appreciated.

That's the guide I used.
I found the howto useful, but the question still remains -- why if I just extract the files with NO changes and re make the iso file system -- why is it not the same size? I am running very close to the edge and this is important -- I am already burning 816mb according to cdrdao.

I posted this on another thread too..
Did you unmount the proc-filesystem before remastering ??
If you don't, you'll end up with a (much) larger ISO...
Hope it helped.
I think one thing which might help this problem is if we might know the exact parameters which were used to create the original iso for the compressed file system -- anyone can help with that?
