another mkisofs question
Hi!
Maybe someone can shed a little light on this...
When I have a structure like
./firstfile
./firstdirectory
./firstdirectory/secondfile
./firstdirectory/seconddirectory
./firstdirectory/seconddirectory/thirdfile
and I do `mkisofs -l -v -o test.iso *` the contents of firstdirectory
are placed in the root of the iso-image alongside firstfile:
bash-2.03# mount -o loop -t iso9660 test.iso /mnt/loop/
bash-2.03# ls -la /mnt/loop/
total 5
dr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 2048 Jan 6 2001 .
drwxrwxrwx 6 root root 1024 Jul 5 2000 ..
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jan 6 2001 firstfile
dr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 2048 Jan 6 2001 seconddirectory
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jan 6 2001 secondfile
I can´t find anything related to this problem in the documentation, so
I have to work around it by adding yet another level of directories, eg
./temp/firstfile
./temp/firstdirectory
./temp/firstdirectory/secondfile
./temp/firstdirectory/seconddirectory
./temp/firstdirectory/seconddirectory/thirdfile
bash-2.03# mkisofs -l -v -o test.iso *
bash-2.03# mount -o loop -t iso9660 test.iso /mnt/loop/
bash-2.03# ls -la /mnt/loop/
total 5
dr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 2048 Jan 6 2001 .
drwxrwxrwx 6 root root 1024 Jul 5 2000 ..
dr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 2048 Jan 6 2001 firstdirectory
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jan 6 2001 firstfile
mkisofs is
bash-2.03# mkisofs --version
mkisofs 1.12 (i686-pc-linux-gnu)
bash-2.03# dpkg -l | grep mkisofs
ii mkisofs 1.8-3 Creates ISO-9660 CD-ROM filesystem images.
Any hints? It doesn´t matter where I place the iso-file or where pwd is
(eg mkisofs -l -v -o /tmp/test.iso mkisofstest/*` does the same).
TIA,
&rw
