Burn a DVD but at the end of a file name add a full stop

gigiz — Fri, 25 Nov 2011 14:26:11 GMT

I i use growisofs to burn a data backup on my hpux server.

i have a 11.11 and i want to backup a data with my dvd recorder HL-DT-STDVD+RW GCA-4040N

when i do :

/usr/local/bin/growisofs -use-the-force-luke=notray -M /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0 /var/tmp/HP/filetto

I backup a file but if i mount a cd :

mount -F cdfs -o cdcase /dev/dsk/c0t0d0 /cdrom

ll /cdrom

all a single file backuped except usr.tar, finished whith a full stop.

Why ?

All my directory backuped are ok. Also a file finished with a full stop .

Why this full stop ?

I haven't tried but I would expect that you should be using RockRidge extensions (-R) for

HPUX to understand the long/unix format filenames

For HP-UX to actually use the RockRidge-style long filenames (stored on the disc when using the -R option of growisofs), you should also use the "rr" mount option when mounting the disc:

mount -F cdfs -o rr,cdcase /dev/dsk/c0t0d0 /cdrom

Hi,

when you try to edit the files ended with full stop from DVD, are they OK to edit ?

OR just need to use the real file name without full stop at the end ?
