I have followed the howto on burning CD's. I created the image file and mounted it, all looks fine. Then I burned the CD. When I mount the CD under Windows NT4.0 SP6a there are no long file names. A lot of the names are simply cut off. Where did I go wrong, in creating the image or in burning the CD? Can someone straigten me out?
CDs use a rather limited file system (iso9660) that does not even support long file names. Fortunately, there are extensions to iso9660 that allow storing long file names. Hower, Unix, Windows and MacOS all use different ones. On Unix it's Rock Ridge and on Windows it's Joliet. You'll have to instruct mkisofs to use RR and Joliet: mkisofs -RJ * &>/dev/null |cdrecord -v dev=0,2,0 speed=4 - ^^ |Joliet | Rock Ridge Ciao, Stefan -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
