I have not done this but think you should be looking into making a multi-session DVD. This should be easy. Method 1 (should be easy and direct): Just burn the original DVD image with growisofs in multi-session mode (the default): growisofs -Z /dev/dvd=image.iso You should then be able to directly add your new files with: growisofs -M /dev/dvd -R -J /more/files Method 2 (probably more appropriate for a CD image): Use mkisofs to create a second session .iso file. Something like: mkisofs -o second.iso -C -M image.iso -R -J /more/files You might need to burn the first session and use burncd/cdrecord or something to get the magic numbers for the -C option.

I need to modify an existing image -- add a directory tree to it... -mi ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

adding a directory to a CD-image (.iso)
Hello! I donwloaded an .iso-image (Solaris 10, actually), which is about 2.7Gb. Before burning it to a DVD, I'd like to add a directory to the image. Is there a way to do it with tools available on FreeBSD -- mkisofs, growisofs, etc? I don't want to recreate the main image from scratch, as I'm sure, I'll get the options wrong and it will not boot :-) Can I just add a directory to the existing iso8859 filesystem?
