Re: mkisofs udf help!



Within mkisofs, the udf part is told to look for the file data specifically at a certain starting sector location. Can someone tell me where/how do I modify the code to specify a different starting location?

This is misconception. Having scanned the data set mkisofs *calculates* where it will be recording the data. In order words it's not hard-coded in any way and totally depends on number of directory entries in original data-set.

I would like to hardcode it so the filesystem looks for the files at 592 so I can manually write the files at those locations using growisofs -use-the-force-luke=seek:592 then make the iso image and strip off the first 1212416 bytes (592 2k blocks) from the iso and write those starting at block 0.

Well, it's a bit far-fetched and you supposedly are totally on your own. http://lists.debian.org/cdwrite/2004/07/msg00102.html can give some starting point. Idea there is to slide DVD-Video content as whole toward outer edge of volume for given amount of blocks. By changing the criteria you can as well target for a specific LBA for any given point. A.
