Have you tried mkisofs? I haven't played with it myself, but I think that is what X-CD-Roast uses to create an image in the Master mode. >From the man page: MKISOFS(8) MKISOFS(8) NAME mkisofs - create an hybrid ISO9660/JOLIET/HFS filesystem with optional Rock Ridge attributes. SYNOPSIS mkisofs [ options ] [ -o filename ] pathspec [pathspec ...] DESCRIPTION mkisofs is effectively a pre-mastering program to generate an ISO9660/JOLIET/HFS hybrid filesystem. mkisofs is capable of generating the System Use Sharing Protocol records (SUSP) specified by the Rock Ridge Interchange Protocol. This is used to further describe the files in the iso9660 filesystem to a unix host, and provides information such as longer filenames, uid/gid, posix permissions, symbolic links, block and character devices. . . . - Nate >> -- Wireless | Amateur Radio Station N0NB | Successfully Microsoft Amateur radio exams; ham radio; Linux info @ | free since January 1998. http://www.qsl.net/n0nb/ | "Debian, the choice of My Kawasaki KZ-650 SR @ | a GNU generation!" http://www.networksplus.net/n0nb/ | http://www.debian.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
