There is nothing special about a DVD ISO. Just make an ISO 9660-compatible image with whatever data you want (in fact, neither a DVD nor CD needs to contain a ISO 9660 file system at all). I usually do something very similar to: mkisofs -o dvdimage.iso -J -r datadir/ Then you can burn this "pre-mastered" image using (see growisofs man page): growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/dvd=dvdimage.iso This should be roughly equivalent to: growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/dvd -J -r datadir/ - -- Michael Kjörling, [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://michael.kjorling.com/ * ASCII Ribbon Campaign: Against HTML Mail, Proprietary Attachments * * .....
