Error in Windows making iso with mkisofs
 

Hi All,

I downloaded from a mirror everything in slackware-current and got the Windows command line version of mkisofs. When attempting to run it, I receive the following error after it scans a bunch of directories:

Using MOZIL001.ASC for ./slackware/xap/mozilla-firefox-1.5-i686-1.tgz.asc (mozi
lla-1.7.12-i486-1.tgz.asc)
Using MOZIL001.TGZ for ./slackware/xap/mozilla-firefox-1.5-i686-1.tgz (mozilla-
1.7.12-i486-1.tgz)
mkisofs: No such file or directory. Unable to open disc image file

This is the command I'm running. Everything is in c:\slackware, including the slackware, isolinux, kernels, etc...

C:\slackware>mkisofs -o /temp/slackware.iso -R -J -V "Slackware Install" -hide-r
r-moved -v -d -N -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 32 -boot-info-table -sort isolinu
x/iso.sort -b isolinux/isolinux.bin -c isolinux/isolinux.boot -A "Slackware Inst
all CD" .

Any help on why I receive that error would be great! The iso.sort and isolinux.bin files are both in the isolinux directory, and I have a temp dir on the root of the c: drive.

Thanks!

Hi

I guess you want to install slack and are trying to create a bootable CD of slackware current. If this is your desired goal I think you are making things a bit more complicated then they need to be. Might I suggest that you download the first CD iso of slack 10.2, install that, and then upgrade to current using swaret or slapt-get.

If you are trying to do something else and my response are of no use I appologize...

Good Luck!
