Hm .. what version of mkisofs are you using? I'm sure my copy (that came with cdrecord, I guess) has that flag that _enables_ rockridge support. And is says RockRidge explicitly, not High Sierra. > > If you want mixed-case for Windows machines, you'll have to find a > > Joilet-enabled mkisofs. > > it's not Joliet, it's High Sierra. anyway, here's a transcript which > may explain my problem better: > > hudsucker# mount_cd9660 -R /dev/cd0a /mnt > mount_cd9660: illegal option -- R > usage: mount_cd9660 [-egrv] [-o options] [-s startsector] special node I was talking about mkisofs. Apparently you're not burning this CD, so whoever did burn it fsck'ed up and didn't turn RockRidge on. :-) From the mount_cd9660 manpage: In either case, files may be opened without explicitly stating a version number. Just like on VMS. :-) You can always copy it and use perl to rename the files.
