This program requires a lot of virtual memory to run since it builds all of the directories in memory. The exact requirements depend upon a lot of things, but for Rock Ridge discs 12Mb would not be unreasonable. Without RockRidge and without the translation tables, the requirements would be considerably less. ***************************** Notes for version 1.2. Minor bugfixes here and there. Support for compiled in defaults for many of the text fields in the volume header are now present, and there is also support for a file ".mkisofsrc" that can also read settings for these parameters. A short script "Configure" was added to allow us to set up special compile options that depend upon the system that we are running on. This should help stamp out the sphaghetti-isms that were starting to grow up in various places in the code. You should get more meaningful error messages if you run out of memory. ***************************** Notes for version 1.1. The big news is that SUSP CE entries are now generated for extremely long filenames and symlink names. This virtually guarantees that there is no limit (OK, well, about 600Mb) for file name lengths. I have tested this as well as I can, and it seems to work with linux. This would only be used very rarely I suspect. Also, I believe that support for VMS is done. You must be careful, because only Stream-LF and FIxed length record files can be recorded. The rest are rejected with error messages. Perhaps I am being too severe here. There is a bugfix in the sorting of entries on the disc - we need to stop comparing once we reach the ';' character. There are four new options -z -d -D -l -V. Some of these tell mkisofs to relax some of the iso9660 restrictions, and many systems apparently do not really seem to mind. Use these with caution. Some diagnostic programs to scan disc images are in the diag directory. These are not as portable as mkisofs, and may have some bugs. Still they are useful because they can check for bugs that I might have introduced as I add new features. ***************************** Notes for version 1.0. In version 1.0, the date fields in the TF fields were fixed - previously I was storing st_ctime as the file creation time instead of the file attribute change time. Thanks to Peter van der Veen for pointing this out. I have one slight concern with this change, however. The Young Minds software is definitely supplying 3 dates (creation, modification and access), and I would strongly suspect that they are incorrectly putting the file attribute change time in the file creation slot. I would be curious to see how the different RRIP filesystems treat this. Anyway, this is something to keep in the back of your mind. The symlink handling was not quite correct in 0.99 - this is now fixed. Only some systems seemed to have been affected by this bug. A command line option is now present to allow you to specifically exclude certain files from the distribution. The case where you do not have permissions to read a directory is now handled better by mkisofs. The directory that cannot be opened is converted into a zero-length file, and processing continues normally. A few portability things have been fixed (hopefully).
