I'm a wife and mother living in Houston, TX. I have three children, Soli, Alex and Sara. I work full-time and my husband, Marty, stays at home with our children and goes to school at night. Please, don't ever call him "Mr. Mom".

Make Any Linux Directory into an ISO File

Linux newbies might appreciate knowing that you need no software app to create burn-able CD images of a particular directory on your system.
