Example—Creating an ISO 9660 File System for a Data CD

The following example shows how to create a ISO 9660 file system for a data CD.


% mkisofs -r /home/dubs/ufs_dir > ufs_cd
Total extents actually written = 56
Total translation table size: 0
Total rockridge attributes bytes: 329
Total directory bytes: 0
Path table size(bytes): 10
Max brk space used 8000
56 extents written (0 Mb)

Then copy the CD file system onto the CD. For example:


% cdrw -i ufs_cd
Initializing device...done.
Writing track 1...done.
Finalizing (Can take several minutes)...done.
