What is mkisofs: mkisofs is effectively a pre-mastering program to generate the iso9660 filesystem - it takes a snapshot of a given directory tree, and generates a binary image which will correspond to an iso9660 filesystem when written to a block device. mkisofs is also capable of generating the System Use Sharing Protocol records specified by the Rock Ridge Interchange Protocol. This is used to further describe the files in the iso9660 filesystem to a unix host, and provides information such as longer filenames, uid/gid, posix permissions, and block and character devices. PACKAGE INCLUDE: mkisofs: Allow you to make a iso9660 or Rock Ridge CD images in your NS. All compiler warning messages eliminated. isoinfo: Simple program to dump contents of iso9660 image in more usable format. isovfy: Simple program to verify contents of iso9660 image AUTHOR: Eric Youngdale wrote both the linux isofs9660 filesystem and the mkisofs utility, and is currently maintaining them. The copyright for the mkisofs utility is held by Yggdrasil Computing, Incorporated. AVAILABILITY: I will upload it to ftp://next-ftp.peak.org/pub/next/submissions/ within day or so. source: mkisofs-1.0.5.src.tar.gz binary: mkisofs-1.0.5.I.tar.gz for intel platform. binary: mkiosfs-1.0.5.NI.tar.gz for intel and m68k fat binaries (you can trim the fat using lipo) I never tested on m68k! PLATFORM: I used it on NS/intel 3.3 DEV compiled with "posix" patched and should work flawlessly on other NS with 3.3 or greater. --kai-- email: kwong@cs.mun.ca url: http://web.cs.mun.ca/~kwong/ Welcome mail!
