I've just completed a blog posting about all of this, where you can
see what I've done and in what order too.

However, my final act was to burn the xaa.iso file to a dvd using k3b.
Looking at the finished dvd I see that every file name is truncated to
the first 12 characters, something which I think k3b is doing. Is
there any way round this that folks know please? It seems a pity to
spoil all the work done at the final step!

Thanks
Sharon.
