I'd like to create a FreeBSD cd containing my sources code, the packages I grab from ftp.freebsd.org, the ports, the ctm and so on... The problem is that my CDR is a SONY CDU-920S (unsupported by FreeBSD 2.2) and a lot of files that I'd like to put on the cdrom as long filename. I have to make the cdrom under w95 with the software that come with CDR (easy cd pro for win95). I did in this way : 1) I created a big tar of all the files I need under FreeBSD 2.2 . (so I can store long filenames) 2) I copied this tar in a msdos drive. 3) I booted in win95 and I uncompressed the tar archive. (the long file name are see by w95 but the dos name is now 8.3 with ~ inside.) 4) I did the cdrom using the the joliet file name (win95 names and dos names) unicode. FreeBSD see the name with the dos name, so the cdrom is ok if I use w95, but when I mount it under FreeBSD I only see the name 8 + 3. 5) Easycd Pro can make the cdrom with the Romeo coding (W95 only file names). Is perhaps this name coding better for FreeBSD ? Is possible to create an image of the cdrom under FreeBSD and then burn it in w95 with easycd pro ? Or if it is not possible is there a way to do this cdrom ?
