growisofs uses mkisofs to create the image to burn on the disk. Currently, I've tried genisomage to create an udf image with file > 6GB on it with: # -r : Rock ridge avec des perm uid et gid correct # -allow-limited-size: requis pour des fichiers > 2GB # -f: follow sym link (pas de symlink avec udf) genisoimage -udf -f -r -J -allow-limited-size -o ~/video2/dvd.iso * Then I burn the image on a dual layer dvd. You can probably do everything in a row with growisofs. HTH -- Dominique Dumont "Delivering successful solutions requires giving people what they need, not what they want."
