 hi all

 If i have a dir named /var/www/1.If i make an image using mkisofs 
with common options and write it on a cd I will see a copy of directory 
'1' on a cd .

But i want to preserve the entire path such that the directory i m 
going to get should have the name 'var.www.1' Plz note that using graft 
points gives a diff result.How do i do this.

   Any ideas.

 Thanks in anticipation

Ultimately i got the solution

  I m posting here so that it may be useful to some one...


  shellmkisofs -r -J -o image.iso -graft-points \
'path/to/files/'='path/to/files' 'path/to/other/'='path/to/other'

   The trailing slash on /path/to/files/ is important 

 

 Cheers

 hi
 
 I want to take data backup on to a cdrom.My problem is when i want to 
 write
 two directories with the same name like
 
 1./var/www
 2./home/naren/www
 
 Sice both direcories have the same name(Since making an iso image with the 
 two dirs combined is impossible ,since /home/naren/www automatically 
 overwrites /var/www in an iso) Since mkisofs does not take in to matter 
 the path to which the (I donno completely )
 files r there but only takes in to accont the last name (i mean only the 
 'www' part)
 
 So finally i want to write it as
 
 1. var.www
 2.home.naren.www
 
 to make an iso image such that when it is burned on a cd gives two dirs 
 var.www 
 and home.naren.www 
 
 I have to make some manipulation when trying to make 
 them(1./var/www,2./home/naren/www) to iso image and then burn it on a cd 
 
 How do i do this ???
 
 Any suggestions 
 
 Thanks in anticipation

Need help splitting a directory

[_N4R3N_]

hi


I want to split a directory in to two sub directories

If my home dir is 1000 Mb I can't write it completely on one cd

So i want to split it in to two directories namely

1)naren.bak.1
2)naren.bak.2

so that my /home/naren directory will be split in to two temporary 

directories ..


so that i can write the images of thus formed using mkisofs  

 on two cdroms

and afterwards i also need help how do i combine them again.

so that after copying two backup directories from the cdrom 

naren.bak.1 and naren.bak.2 in to
/tmp directory I want to combine this 

two to make it again one directory say naren 

How do i do this 

any ideas
