hi, <BEGIN RANT> I give up; there must be some secret club that knows the trick here. I cannot seem to get symlinks to a directory to come out on a CD or even in an iso9660 image. These are relative links - the obvious frozen -> potato in a directory. I have been trying to get this to work for about two weeks; I have the man page memorized, had a long email argument about semantics with the maintainer of the package (for whom it was apparently worth his time to argue but not to actually try to explain the program to me) and I believe I have tried every possible combination of options. I do not have any microsoft and no other way to run the CD burner ... <\END RANT>
Here is the most recent version of the command (which I have been fooling with for so long it has been elevated to a f*ing shell [EMAIL PROTECTED]@%$%) #!/bin/sh mkisofs -f -J -T -r -l -V EFILinux_2.2 -P EFI-Systems -b boot/rescue.bin \ -c boot.catalog -o /disks/EFI-image/EFI-1.0-i386.raw /disks/EFI; exit 0 This one actually makes an unbootable CD that has an empty binary-i386 directory. Removing the -r makes every file executable, including the empty links which don't go anywhere. any clues? thanks, erik
