Copy files to root of DVD with mkdvd

[soccertl]

I am trying to figure out a way to copy multiple files to the root of the DVD when I execute mkdvd. I already use the -z option to copy a customization file to the root, but I have other files I need to get there too. What options do I have to do that? Do I need to do something during the create of the image with mksysb? Thanks for any help.

I'm not sure if that's what you need, but have you already tried the following option:

-r "directory"

Indicates existing directory structure to burn onto a DVD. This makes a DVD image that is a copy of the given directory structure.

Well, basically I use this:
ISO_cmd="time mkdvd -R -S -Y \
-z $Target_Dir/$Temp_Work_Dir/mkdvd_customize \
-u $Target_Dir/$Temp_Work_Dir/var/adm/ras/bosinst.dat a \
-m $Package_Source_Name \
-C $Target_Dir \
-I $Target_Dir/$Temp_Work_Dir"
It is in a script file but this should show the general use. I want to be able to create the DVD with a readable file in the root directory which contains readme type information. So, even though the image chunks will be on the DVD, I need this readable file to be in the root of the DVD so a PFE/CE can read it
