It turns out that the problem is that some of the recipients of this CD are using Wintel, which apparently does not read the translation table. When this burner is running on a wintel CPU, we burn iso9660 CD's with Corel's CD Creator and can select long file names... they are readable on wintel machines and mounted under Unix as iso9660 platters both displaying the long file names properly. Any idea what the difference between the flavors of iso9660 are and how to get mkisofs to use the flavor that the Corel software uses? thanks -Ian At 04:53 PM 7/23/97 -0500, John Prince wrote: >What options are you using with mkisofs?? >Where do the source file(s) currently live? >--John > >Ian Kallen writes: >> I tried adding the -l in the mkisofs line of Jordans lil makecdfs.sh script >> to gain retention of long file names.
