I make a lot of CDs with mkisofs for distribution to sun,
sgi, and hp hosts. (HPUX 10.{10,20}).
I believe the official story about hpux is that it only supports plain
iso9660, in particular only uppercase filenames. I thought I'd have to
live with this, but then I happened to mount a CD made with GEAR on NT
(a simple 'mount -F cdfs ...') and it actually turns up whith the
correct filenames!
Obviously there is a way to make a cdfs filesystem thats useable on
hpux, but can anyone say if this can be accomplished with mkisofs?
