In adding the data I wanted to the Live CD, I quickly ran into the
filename length limitation of ISO9660/Joliet. If I'm willing to break the
Joliet standard, I can get files of length 102 on the disc. Normally the
standard lets me use 64-character filenames.
Meanwhile, as I understand things, UDF is the normal filesystem for DVDs,
is pretty widely-supported, and supports 255-character-long paths, perhaps

generating CDs. Right now, you generate DVDs as large CDs; using UDF
would let you generate CDs as if they were small DVDs. (Both work on
most OSs, and besides, You would just switch to
Have you guys thought about making livecd-creator output UDF-format
filesystems rather than the limited ISO9660?
