Andreas, I don't know if this has been fixed, but I couldn't burn a CD until
yesterday... anyway, I basically did:
$ ./mkisofs -J -a -r -T -v -quiet -V "Debian 2.0" \
-b boot/resc1440.bin \
-c boot/boot.catalog pre-CD \
| cdrecord -v -eject dev=3,0 speed=4 fs=4M -
where mkisofs is the one included on your tarball.
The stock kernel mounts this CD (mount -t auto /dev/hdd cdrom) as joliet... it
/spits:
ISO9660 Extensions: Microsoft Joliet Level 3
ISO9660 Extensions: RRIP_1991A
/etc/mtab says "/dev/scd1 /cd iso9660 0 0" and the only mount option is "ro"
but I don't have problems with the symlinks. I can put this CD on a Windows
95 machine, and it reads the thing just fine... and on the linux machine, it
works, too:
$ ls -l /cd/debian/dists/
total 3
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 102 Jun 16 13:57 TRANS.TBL
lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 7 Jun 16 08:44 frozen -> ../hamm
lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 7 Jun 16 08:44 hamm -> ../hamm
$ ls -l /cd/debian/dists/frozen/
total 8
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 192 Jun 16 13:57 TRANS.TBL
dr-xr-xr-x 4 root root 2048 Jun 16 08:15 contrib
dr-xr-xr-x 5 root root 2048 Jun 16 08:21 main
lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 14 Jun 16 08:44 non-US -> ../non-US/hamm
dr-xr-xr-x 4 root root 2048 Jun 16 07:50 non-free
The writer is installed on a machine running 2.1.103 (the support for my
controller is better with 2.1.10x), but I used the CD to freshly install
Debian on a couple of PC's and to upgrade my own computer.
I hope this helps somehow...
