RE: How do you recover a long filename that Wndows squashed?
OK, thats kind of wierd, but the image of debian doesn't contain the 8.3
caracters, right?
So when does it happend, when u burn it or copy the burned cd to hd? If
it's cdcreator(wich i don't belive it is) then mabye scould try clonecd.
It just take the image 'as is' and put it on a cdr.
Or the right way, the debian way...:)
