The file is now 715 MB instead of 700 !!! so it doesn't fit into my CD !!!No, you are just victim of a kernel bug in the iso9660 filesystem. Hardlinks are not correctly copied as hardlinks, so they are split into individual files and therefore require more space on the destination filesystem. If you replace all files that are >= 1 Byte and identical by content to each other, with hardlinks, the allocated space should shrink accordingly. Regards -Klaus Knopper
You do this on whatever writeable hard disk filesystem you are mastering from (ext2/3) correct? Otherwise it just requires the ISO9660 bug to be fixed. The bug is in the kernel and not mkisofs?
Austin PS - thanks, this has been killing me for months. _______________________________________________ debian-knoppix mailing list debian-knoppix@linuxtag.org http://mailman.linuxtag.org/mailman/listinfo/debian-knoppix
