Hi Simon,

Sorry for the very late response!

From the mondo-archive.log I can see that mkisofs failed to create the
ISO image. I think this may be because of a problem with creating larger
files on the Iomega Rev drive. Could you try manually creating a file
larger than 1000MB, e.g. with 3380MB size directly on the mounted Iomega
Rev drive to see whether that works, e.g. by doing this:

        dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/rev/test.dat bs=1M count=4380

I use 4380MB image size all the time with mondoarchive and I have not
experienced this problem. However, if this is still an issue for you, it
would be great if you could then also try the latest package version
(1:2.2.7-1 at the moment).

Given that you reported this quite some time ago, this may not be an
issue for you anymore. It would be great if you could give your feedback
either way. (I'll close the bug in four weeks time if I don't hear
anything, but active confirmation from your end would be most welcome.)

Thanks a lot & best regards,
Andree
