dd if=/dev/cdrom of=image.iso
NB: if = input file (specify your CD/DVD-ROM device)
of = output file (specify the filename you want to use)
You could also copy the directory tree structure of each disc into one
big tree, and do network installs that way. I get quite quick results
using my webserver for network installs.
