writing cd

[pichi]

hi everybody, i have this little problem
i am using a cdwriter to burn a cd with info every week, i use the multi option, so i can write multiples sessions, i am using the comand:
mkisofs -J -o cd_image2 -c $NEXT_TRACK -M /dev/scd0 -graft-points /$backup/=/home/$folder
where $NEXT_TRACK=´cdrecord -msinfo dev=0,0,0´
$backup= the date, for example "Backup-8Feb2003"
$folder= the file or folder to backup
and then for writing: cdrecord -v speed=2 dev=0,0,0 -eject -multi cd_image2,
everything works perfect, but when i read the info on the cd, the first time, the folder appears right, Backup-8feb2003, when i wrote a second folder (backup-15Feb2003) the first one appears Backup00, how can i write a multi session and always leave the written folders as they were written?? can i do that?
thanks in advance
Pichi

Maybe you are running into a limitation of the filesystem. I don't know if iso9660 supports long filenames. After a few Googles, it seems you need to add a "-J" for Joliet extensions to your mkisofs command. That enables long filename support in Windows (presumably for Linux and other OS's too).

I've never burned anything but .isos in Linux, so I'm interested to hear if that does the trick --
