From the spec file for the RPM, the only dependency is the requirement that mkisofs be installed[0]. What dependency problems did you have?
When I run the script, I get: ================================== Starting makeSUSEdvd version 0.35 /tmp/CD_DIR already exists. Using /tmp/CD_DIR.12920 instead
That's because you have an aborted build and /tmp/CD_DIR is left behind. There's no harm in removing it unless you used makeSUSEdvd with the "-i" option, and plan to use the "-C" option later.
You seem to not have create_package_descr installed. You can install the current version with the command : rpm -Uvh autoyast2-utils-2.13.56-3.noarch.rpm after getting it from https://sourceforge.net/projects/makesusedvd. Would you like to install" automagically with RPM? [n/Y] : ==================================
Not particularly interested in finding out what autoyast will do to my Gentoo workstation..... <grin>
No need to download autoyast2, just the create_package_descr.gz file. As long as you extract it into a directory in your $PATH it should be fine. I'll say should, I'm not presently running any non-SUSE systems[0] so can't say for certain.
Anyway, this begs the question as to why the command below doesn't work.
When I run it, I get: genisoimage: Uh oh, I cant find the boot catalog directory './raw/boot/loader'!
I don't have genisoimage installed, so have no idea why it's coming up with that error.
Of course, the directory does exist and gnisoimage even scans it! I'm really getting desparate here!
Have you tried using mkisofs itself to do the job? While limited to only (open)SUSE systems[0], the commands I gave work on all those I've tested it on, so should (there's that word again!) work on non-SUSE systems. [0] Not counting a WinXP system. I might actually try it out using Cygwin, purely as a matter of curiosity.
