10.3: Create a system install DVD
Pardon me if this is off the mark, but why not just make a DVD-sized image, mount it, clone the CD to it with Carbon Copy Cloner, and then add/edit whatever you want from there?

That's what I said man. Except there is no reason to use non free software when it is built into Disk Util.
10.3: Create a system install firewire disk
While I agree that a single DVD is more convenient than multiple CDs, given the disparity between the read speeds for the two formats, I should think that the install would be much slower with the DVD. Why not use the above methods to put the install on a portable firewire disk for maximum speed?

it's a common misperception that DVDs read slower than CD's - but it's not true. due to the apples and oranges techniques employed by the marketers of such devices, a 1x CD read speed is ~150kb, whereas a 1x DVD read speed is over 1 MB.

It applies both ways, all you have to do is use the *drumroll* Restore function.
For those resizing images...its so much easier just to create a sparse image the size of a DVD. Then it only takes as much space as necessary. ---

Carbon Copy Cloner is pretty much free, although I recommend donating since it's so useful and reliable
10.3: Create a system install DVD
Pardon me if this is off the mark, but why not just make a DVD-sized image, mount it, clone the CD to it with Carbon Copy Cloner, and then add/edit whatever you want from there? I think the boot information needs to go in the CD ROM header, at least that's how the "El Torito" ISO 9660 bootable CD-ROM standard works. If you make a disk image from a bootable CD, the disk image will be bit-by-bit identical to the original and will thus also be bootable. If you make a new (non-bootable) image, just copying some files to it won't make it bootable; you still need to modify the header. --M

while i have used ccc in the past successfully to dupe disks, |
