We make all of our CDs with both Joilet and Rockridge extensions. It works fine for all the images that I have tried. (none of the kernels I use have the joilet pach applied) We use mkhybrid instead of mkisofs (it is just a patched version of mkisofs) Does mkisofs 1.12a4 support both joliet and rockridge?
