You only used Joliet (-J)?
Maybe you need this option instead (or "as well"):
-joliet-long
Allow Joliet filenames to be up to 103 Unicode characters.
This breaks the Joliet specification - but appears to work. Use with
caution.
The number 103 is derived from: the maximum Directory
Record Length (254), minus the length of Directory Record (33), minus
CD-ROM XA System Use Extension Information (14), divided by the UTF-16
character size (2).
You might also want
-l Allow full 31 character filenames. Normally the ISO9660
filename will be in an 8.3 format which is compatible with MS-DOS, even
though the ISO9660 standard allows filenames of up to 31 characters. If
you use this option, the disc may be difficult to use on a MS-DOS
system, but this comes in handy on some other systems (such as the
Amiga). Use with caution.
Check man mkisofs for more details :) .
Hope this helps,
Holly
