I know that at the top of the mkisofs man page it says that the -o option can come first; but the examples at the bottom of the man page indicate to put the name of the output file first. When I run mkisofs, I put it first; the basic syntax I offer above works for me. Generally I use: mkisofs -o <filename>.iso -J -R -P "Joe" -sysid "BACKUP" -V "<meaningful string>" -l backup/ Almost always, I use the same name for the <filename> and for the <meaningful string>.
