Look for the -r or -R options in the mkisofs man page. If you care about usability under windows, look at -J. If you care about macs, look at -hfs or -apple. You can combine these for support for multiple platforms. The mkisofs man page is long but worth at least a quick skim so you know what to look for later. -- Mark
