Erm stop, no, little problem with DOS: It will cut off filenames at 8.3 convention because DOS only gets the ISO-9660 part, but not the standard RockRidge (or even the non- standard "Joliet" extension). But because RockRidge is standard, it provides the RR_MOVED mechanism which can be used to obtain the "real" filenames from the ISO-9660 8.3 names. > Thanks very much.

You just need to have the proper permissions, or call the command with a "sudo" prefix - I prefer the first option. > Probably use a seperate script for the DVD's and growiofs. Because the geowisofs burning command doesn't allow the file name for the ISO to be a separate parameter, I chose to put it into a little shell script. That's the only reason that I didn't create an alias in /etc/csh.cshrc. If something like % growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/dvd -f cdr.iso ^^^^^^^^^^, fictional parameter would be possible, I would really prefer it. The alias could then be everything until "-f" (which would read out "use this file as image" instead of the "device=file" parameter which isn't good for creating an alias (such as for cdrecord or cdrdao). -- Polytropon >From Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
