I'm aware that under normal circumstances, cd9660 should always be read-only, but I was hoping I'd be able to make changes to an iso image, and then burn the modified image. The image is bootable, and I'm looking to avoid "breaking" the bootable nature of the CD by my inept use of mkisofs. Here's what I've tried... (as root) # chown root:wheel /tmp/mycd.iso # chmod 666 /tmp/mycd.iso # mkdir /mnt/cd # mdconfig -a -t vnode -f /tmp/mycd.iso -u 1 # mount -t cd9660 -o rw /dev/md1 /mnt/cd This works, and /mnt/cd is the iso's filesystem. However, the rw argument is ignored. Any actions which would write to the iso image fail with "Read-only file system". The mount command also shows... /dev/md1 on /mnt/cd (cd9660, local, read-only) Suggestions? or should I just RTFM on mkisofs and bootable CDs --daxbert To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
