How to burn a CD-ROM from a Mac for Solaris
- by cope360
I would like to burn a CD using a Mac (10.5) which I can then access from a Solaris 10 x86 machine.
This partially works:
Insert blank CD and let the Finder open it so it creates a "Recordable CD" window for it.
Drag the files to be burned into the "Recordable CD" window
Burn (there are no options except for speed)
Then to mount in Solaris:
mount -f hsfs -o ro /dev/dsk/foo /mnt/bar
The problem here is that Solaris will see all the filenames as lower case and it will only allow each file name to contain one period (these are HSFS limitations). My guess is that the Mac is not burning the disc with the Rock Ridge extensions that allow for the full file names to be preserved.
Is there some combination of burning tools/options and mount options that will make this work?
