Re: [Sheflug] Best Compression Method

I'm looking for the best compression method (for Linux or Windows) and am
hoping someone on this list can help me. Basically, I'm getting a PS2 and a
DVD-RW for Chrimbo and am starting to stock up games ready =o) Anyway, I
don't have a big hard drive so I'm wanting to get them as small as posible.
So far I have a 2.7gb ISO which I've managed to get down to 1.92gb with
winace. I tried rar which got it to 1.98gb and tar.bz2 got it to 1.96gb. I'm
just wondering if anyone knows of any other method that's better than these?
I don't care if it takes five hours to compress and uncompress =o) I just
want to get the size down.
I doubt you'll get much help on a public mailing list to help you process pirated software.

Regards,

Jonathan
