EXAMPLES
To create a vanilla ISO9660 file system image in the file cd.iso, where the directory cd_dir will become the root directory of the CD, call: % mkisofs -o cd.iso cd_dir
To create an HFS hybrid CD with Rock Ridge extensions of the source directory cd_dir: % mkisofs -o cd.iso -R cd_dir
To create an HFS hybrid CD with Rock Ridge extensions of the source directory cd_dir where all files have at least read permission and all files are owned by root, call: % mkisofs -o cd.iso -r cd_dir
To create an HFS hybrid CD with the Joliet and Rock Ridge extensions of the source directory cd_dir: % mkisofs -o cd.iso -R -J -hfs cd_dir
To create an HFS hybrid CD from the source directory cd_dir that contains Netatalk Apple/Unix files: % mkisofs -o cd.iso --netatalk cd_dir
To create a HFS hybrid CD from the source directory cd_dir, giving all files CREATOR and TYPES based on just their filename extensions listed in the file "mapping": % mkisofs -o cd.iso -map mapping cd_dir
To create a CD with the "Apple Extensions to ISO9660" from the source directories cd_dir and another_dir. Files in all the known Apple/Unix format are decoded, and any other files are given CREATOR and TYPE based on their magic number given in the file "magic": % mkisofs -o cd.iso -apple -magic magic -probe cd_dir another_dir
The following example puts different files on the CD that all have the name README but have different contents when seen as an ISO9660/RockRidge, Joliet, or HFS CD. Current directory contains: % ls -F
README.hfs README.joliet README.unix cd_dir/
The following command puts the contents of the directory cd_dir on the CD along with the three README files, but only one will be seen from each of the three file systems:
% mkisofs -o cd.iso -hfs -J -r -hide README.hfs -hide README.joliet -hide-joliet README.hfs -hide-joliet README.unix -hide-hfs README.joliet -hide-hfs README.unix README=README.hfs README=README.joliet README=README.unix cd_dir
In effect, the file README.hfs will be seen as README on the HFS CD, and the other two README files will be hidden, similarly for the Joliet and ISO9660/RockRidge CD. There are probably all sorts of strange results possible with combinations of the hide options. |
