It is disputed, whether the specs say that the partitions must be marked
by 0xEF in legacy MBR tables and by C12A7328-F81F-11D2-BA4B-00A0C93EC93B
in GPT.
In practice there seems to be no

That's not a link loop, because "." is not a symbolic link.
But if a tree traversal is ins
I assume the problem is the debian link, which points to the same directory:

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. My question is rather why the size increases so
much. When I take a folder that occupies 5 GiB and with mkisofs I create
an iso file, it still occupies 5 GiB. And if I later extract the files
it takes up 5 GiB again
