> I am pretty convinced that mkisofs does the right thing for large files.  I made a .iso file of the large tar file and it seemed to contain all of the tar data plus some overhead for translation.  I tried to mount the .iso file as a loop device and I got the famous cruft mount message and an indication of the wrong size on the file.  I also wrote the .iso file as a raw file to the DVD with growisofs and based on progress messages, it seemed to work.  When I mounted the DVD, I got the same cruft message...

Linux kernel messages that continue the word "cruft"  are related to
well known Linux isofs kernel bugs :-(
