They are in the same directory. Remember that when you pass mkisofs a list of directories, their contents are combined to create the CD. you can't have duplicates, though. /disk2/larry/CUSTOM and /disk2/curly/CUSTOM both map to "/CUSTOM" on the cdrom. If you really wanted the cdrom to contain two subdirectories named "/larry" and "/curly", try passing just "/disk2" to mkisofs, or if there are other directories in disk2, create a /disk2/cdrom, move larry and curly into there, and run "mkisofs /disk2/cdrom". -- Dan Nelson dnelson@allantgroup.com
