Re: hidden file on an iso-image ?



> It remains the question how can one read all files under Linux?

Should be simple: mount -onorock on Linux.

The iso image contains both joliet and rock ridge extensions. M$ is
unable to read rockridge, Linux will use rockridge in preference, then
joliet. If you tell Linux not to use the rock ridge info, it falls back
to joliet.

What the mkisofs -hide options do is omit an entry for the respective
rockridge/joliet data, hence your file "disappears".

You should get an even more interesting look at the contents if you
mount with -onorock,nojoliet. You can do this all on the iso image with
the loop device.
