Can one create Rescue and Recovery on a single DVD?

#1 Post by craigg » Thu Mar 17, 2005 4:26 pm

I decided to create a rescue and recovery disk using a single DVD +R. I used the IBM utility to create the disk and it seems like it treated the DVD as a CD and only wrote ~300mb of data to the disk. I thought it would be best to just have everything on one disk. Is this a known issue with IBM that the recovery has to be written to multiple CDs? Can I just dump the whole Z partition to one DVD?

Thanks in advance!

Put a CD in first for the Boot Disk.

Then, put in a DVD, and ALL the REST will write on 1 DVD.
