mkisofs to create iso
Hi all,

I got the following problem.
I run this command.
Code:
mkisofs -o mynew.iso -l -b isolinux.bin -c boot.cat -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table base images isolinux pc_doc

and I get all files from base, images, isolinux and pc_doc in the root dir of the iso.

I want a root dir in the iso containing base, images, isolinux, pc_doc as directories and I want the files in there?

Any help please?

Not my expertise, but perhaps if these directories and contents were all in a parent cd_dir, they would be laid out of the iso the same?

mkisofs -o output.iso -b isolinux/isolinux.bin -c isolinux/boot.cat -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table root-dir

did the magic
