Hi Eran,

Take a look at Merijn's page.

http://www.cmve.net/~merijn/

My CD-ROM doesn't show what I expect
It can be an Oracle CD-ROM, or a CD created on Windows, or whereever they used Rock Ridge extensions. Long names are truncated or show upper case only. Oracle tells you to use pfs_mount.

Do not use pfs_mount!. Install the Rock-Ridge extension patches instead and never worry about these problems. For HP-UX 11.00 you will need forget all about PFS and install PHKL_26448 (now superceded by PHKL_28060), PHCO_26449, and PHKL_26450 to have HP-UX recognize those file systems automatically on mount! For HP-UX 11.11 (11i) you need PHCO_25841, PHKL_26269, and PHKL_25760.

No need thereafter to use -o cdfs to mount anymore, provided you enter the CD drive in /etc/fstab like this:

/dev/cd0 /cdrom cdfs ro,rr,noauto 0 0

Hope it helps,

Robert-Jan.

if its not an oracle cd (where pfs_mount has been used) it could have been burned with MS Joilet style and not ISO 9660 (or whatever the number - never remember it :)).I'd also try -o cdcase option for mount but don't think its the case here.

Zeev ,
The files are longer then 8.3 format ,
Burning in ISO 9660 format still give me the same solution .

You are seeing the 8.3 filenames because that's all that the CDROM driver supports without patches (ie, ISO9660). (accuracy note: HP CDs show longer filenames and mixed UPPER/lower case because they are in a non-standard format) As mentioned, PFS can be used to see the long filenames but it is quite unstable at 11.0 and later. Install all 3 of the special patches that will support RockRidge format. Then mount with the -orr option. For 10.20, you have no choice but to use PFS.
