 Greenstone 2 can export collections to CD/DVD-ROMs. Greenstone 2 can export collections to CD/DVD-ROMs.
  
 +**NOTE:**\\ Collections with **Lucene as indexer and/or JDBM as database type won't work with Greenstone 2 collections exported to CD-ROM**. Lucene and JDBM work with Java and Java is not part of the export, so searching (lucene) and browsing (jdbm) won't work.\\ We advise that collections built with lucene and/or jdbm are rebuilt with mgpp as indexer and gdbm as database before exporting.

 The very first time you run gs3-server.sh, it can take some time for it to set things up: it needs to copy a lot of files to your machine's temp area.
