Software for a bootable FreeSBIE DVD

Yes, the CD is full, but I would like a bootable FreeSBIE DVD with:

Java Diablo or some other jdbc 1.4.2 or 1.5 (or are there still unsuperable license issues, even now that Sun has changed the licensing and the FreeBSD foundation distributes Diablo.

OpenOffice.org Wasn’t this on the 1.1 cd? Is this also a victim of Java licensing?

KDE and or Gnome I’m guessing that they were just too big for the CD

More multimedia stuff

Feel free to edit this page to add more to my wishlist. Or jump to bootable FreeSBIE DVD to tell us how to build a bootable DVD.

I’m pretty sure this can be done, because I have a Knoppix DVD with all this and more, but of course that’s not FreeBSD or FreeSBIE; I think Ubuntu gets most of this on their CD (with separate distributions including Gnome (Ubuntu) and KDE (Kubuntu) but again, it isn’t FreeBIE.

Note that this is NOT intended as a criticism; I like FreeSBIE and appreciate all the hard work that has gone into it. I’ll be happy to document the process if I can get through it myself.

Why not a SD-Card bootable Freesbie? A 2 GB sd/mmc/cf card is very cheap and you can put *everything* you like there.
