Hi Joerg, Tks for your advice.

I went through man mkisofs(8) and came to following conclusion. If the original mode of directories and files are; directory=0664 file=0664 owner and group=satimis:satimis To preserve the original state after burning, the command line will be; # mkisofs -o cd.iso -r -uid satimis -gid satimis -dir-mode 0664 -file-mode 0664 -new-dir-mode 0664 /path/to/data If I'm wrong please correct me. I'm not clear of -z option, what does it mean "transparently compressed file" and "the resulting disks are only transparently readable'? TIA B.R.
