NSIS 2.02 volume size question
Hi, i have downloaded the NSIS 2.02, it is very cool, but i have a question, how to set the size of the archives, i mean if have a 20Mbs source and i want to put them in 1.4Mbs disks, how i can set the size by volumes or split the final archive?.
Sorry for my bad english.
Spanning is currently not supported
Arggg, well thanks.
It is possible, but would require a bit of work.
Disc #1 has setup.exe and data1.7z
Disc #2 has data2.7z
...And so on.
Your setup.exe will extract 7z.exe (7-Zip command-line exe), then execute it to decompress data1.7z. It will then ask for the next disc, call 7z.exe again and so on.
It'll have to use simple MessageBox's to ask the user to put the next discs in.
