Attempting to create an ISO9660 file to be burned to CD-R. I have created a directory structure and populated it with files. I then issue this command from within the directory I consider to be the virtual root to be placed on the CD-R:

mkisofs -v -r -o ../test.iso *

When I burn the CD-R I end up with all my data files located in the root directory and no directory structure whatsoever on the CD.

Any suggestions?

Also, is there any way to view the content of an ISO file without burning it to CD-R? An ISO browser maybe?
 
damm UNIX :)

my mistake was the use of *

The command that works is:

mkisofs -v -r -o ../test.iso ./

Still would like to know if there is an ISO file browser for Solaris out there anywhere.
