#10802 is a DVD, all zipped, with about 9400 eBooks. From December 2004. #11802 is a CD, not zipped, with "best of" selections (lot of HTML, too). about 960 eBooks from August 2003
Actually, the total title count on that one is just above 600, but close enough.
BTW, the tool is telling me that all zip/txt files add up to 116% of a DVD (about 5.24GB). That will fit on a dual layer DVD, but won't quite fit on a single-layer.
If you remove the human genome files, it will. I did it yesterday, but ran in to difficulties on my end before I was able to save it; Not the systems fault.
I'll be working with Craig to speed things up during the selection process (there are some MySQL optimizations he didn't use *). Ultimately, to build the ISO, *all* of the files need to be read from disk, then written to the new ISO file. So, for a large ISO file, this can take while (i.e., over 20 minutes for a regular DVD image).
Not to mention if a lot of people are using it at the same time. :) Anyway, I know its a lot faster than it was. Craig has done an awesome job!
We'll be adding some common sense instructions (such as, don't just add every eBook -- you're better off simply using rsync to download what you need), tutorials, examples, etc. before this goes production. I'm planning to demo it as part of the StorCloud competition at the SuperComputing conference (Seattle November 12-18). -- Greg
I'll hurry up on the documentation then. We're just making some minor edits. You can use what you like and throw out the rest. It will be in an FAQ type format.
