Description H. Peter Anvin 2002-02-03 18:37:09 EST

To make a zisofs (compressed iso9660) CD image, you need a patched cdrtools,
along with a small utility called "mkzftree", both of which is available in the
package "zisofs-tools".

zisofs support has been integrated in the Linux kernel since version 2.4.14.

Added the URL to the comment, so I can click on it, because I'm
lazy, even though I could have pasted it into the browser location
bar, and now typed a bunch of stuff so it actually took more effort.

I'm weird like that when I haven't had enough caffeine in a day.

;o)

You know you can just click on the "URL" label, right?

Comment 3 Mike A. Harris 2002-02-05 03:45:30 EST

Hehe, no.. I didn't know that.  ;o)  Told ya, it's the caffeine lack.  ;o)

I'll have to ask Arjan if this is something we can/will support or not
in our kernel, but it looks like something nice to have IMHO.

Comment 4 Mike A. Harris 2002-02-05 04:32:31 EST

zisofs support now added to cdrtools.  The rawhide kernel also supports
this by default.  zisofs package will be added to rawhide later today.

Thanks Hans
