Hi, be invited to try the release 0.5.0 of GNU xorriso, a ISO 9660 Rock Ridge filesystem manipulator. Available on GNU FTP mirrors as xorriso/xorriso-0.5.0.tar.gz
It creates, loads, manipulates and writes ISO 9660 filesystem images with Rock Ridge extensions. Optionally it supports hard links, ACLs, xattr, and MD5 checksums. xorriso can load the management information of existing ISO images and it writes the session results to optical media or to filesystem objects. Vice versa xorriso is able to copy file objects from ISO 9660 filesystems to disk. A special property of xorriso is that it needs neither an external ISO 9660 formatter program nor an external burn program for CD, DVD or BD but rather incorporates the libraries of libburnia-project.org . This is the first release of the former xorriso standalone project under the name GNU xorriso. Novelties: * Bug fix: Regression in libisofs introduced with xorriso-0.4.2 in August 2009: -boot_image could lead to SIGSEGV. (already fixed by xorriso-0.4.8.pl01) * Bug fix: xorriso -update_r could lead to SIGSEGV if applied to a data file rather than a directory. * Bug fix on FreeBSD: xorriso could leave the drive tray locked. * Bug fix on FreeBSD: Piped input in -as cdrecord emulation was falsely attributed a small fixed size. * New option -scsi_log License: GPLv3+ System requirements: - GNU/Linux: kernel 2.4 or 2.6, libc, libpthread - FreeBSD : libc, libpthread, libiconv, IDE and SATA drives need atapicam - on other X/Open systems there will be no direct operation of CD/DVD/BD drives, but only POSIX i/o which may or may not be offered by the system for DVD-RAM, DVD+RW, or BD-RE. Optional: libreadline + libreadline-development zlib + zlib-development on GNU/Linux: libacl + libacl-development If they were present at compile time, then the optional libraries have to be present at runtime, too.
