Re: [MiNT] mkisofs problem

[Peter Slegg <p.slegg@scubadivers.co.uk>]

Just to share my latest experiments.

I tried running mkisofs from bash and it created the attached file
which helped me create a test command:

./mkisofs.prg  -J -l -r -v -f -o D:\image.iso  /g/photos/Disc\ 2/

This created image.iso in d:\  in Freemint 1.18 which I didn't expect.

Trying the same from CD-ISO produces an error and the log file:

(end)
Invalid node -
Exit code = -4972

I thought it might be the spaces in the path but the error is
the same when I use a path without spaces.

I might repeat Mint 1.17 and see if the log is the same.

Regards,

Peter
