Try to picture what's happening: It's creating a root directory for the CD-ROM, and you're telling it to put in the contents of two different directories. Both of those directories have a file by the name of "CUSTOM". Which one is it supposed to use? It can't tell, so it throws up its hands, gives up, and complains. One way you could handle this is by making each of your candidate directories a sub-directory on the CD-ROM. mkisofs has a concept of "graft points" which may be the easiest way to do this. The syntax would be something like: mkisofs -U -R curly/=/disk2/curly larry/=/disk2/larry [untested]
