Hi,combine" these 4.whatever gig files into ONE big 25 gig file (well, multiple ones, for the multiple Blu-Ray discs) that the Blu-Ray disc, the first one, can boot from, and from then onwards, can install the rest of Debian from?
I've downloaded all 16 DVDs of 10.2, the .iso files are on my HD right now. Now what I want to do, is to burn all that data to some Blu-Ray discs that I have (I guess I'll need about 4 of them, at 25 gigs each?), NOT DVDs. How do I do this, ie. "
Use jigdo to build the 4 blu-ray images. <https://www.debian.org/CD/jigdo-cd/>

Er - how do I use it to build the Blu-Ray images FROM the DVD images?
All the docs talk about how to build the *DVD images* themselves....?
:(

why not on a single USB 64Gb pendrive?

I don't follow you - I have used jigdo to d/l the iso files I *have*,
all complete - how will it help me make the BLU-RAY images out of
them? THAT was my question....

I wouldn't try the impossible.
DVD images go to DVD disks.
Blu-Ray images go to Blu-Ray disks.

At some level presumably one mounts the ISOs extracts the files builds
a file tree for one big image and burns a new ISO.

Yes. As I understand it, Jigdo can do exactly this, specifically in such
a way that the directory structure is what Debian installer expects and
so the resulting BDs can be used for installaing.

Yes, HOW please? How do I tell it to build *Blu-ray* size images to burn??
Point Jigdo to the jigdo file for creating BD images. See https://www.debian.org/CD/jigdo-cd/ and https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/amd64/jigdo-bd/

Er - are you sure that won't start getting it from the net all over again or something? How do I tell it I already *HAVE* 16 DVD .isos? It won't delete them or something in a moment of lunacy, will it?

No. Information on the topic seems to indicate it won't if that's your
wish.

I already answered that. OTOH, Pascal Hambourg contradicts me on this so
I suppose you're on your own. I don't want to be involved any further.

I have no idea.
