Do not include files to install
Hi together,
I like to create a DVD with an installer on it.

Starting the installer in the root dir of the DVD should copy a lot of large files from the DVD to the local file system.

But the files should not be included in the installer, because the installer get to large.

So: how is it possible to copy files relative to the installer on the same dvd to the local filesystem?

Thanks for tips, Gérôme

4.9.3.2 CopyFiles
[/SILENT] [/FILESONLY] filespec_on_destsys destination_path [size_of_files_in_kb]
Copies files from the source to the destination on the installing system. Useful with $EXEDIR if you want to copy from installation media, or to copy from one place to another on the system.

$EXEDIR

The directory containing the installer executable
