CD mount issue in HP-UX
We have downloaded the software & write DVD on Windows XP machine. But while mounting the CD on HP_UX server it shows junk/corrupted file names & ^m charaters appearing in files.
CD mount perfectly OK on linux machine.
Can some one tell steps to mount such CDs , also is there any spscific format/CD writing software we have to use while writing the CD.
Thanks in advance.

Re: CD mount issue in HP-UX
Could you post your HPUX version?

Re: CD mount issue in HP-UX
When you create the DVD, select on your writing software ISO9660+ Joliet extensions the DVD file system. And the character set must be also ISO9660.
Most writing software offers also the posibility to allow more than 255 characters in path, which can be usefull.
Best regards,
Horia.

Re: CD mount issue in HP-UX
Thanks for your replies, Currently I do not have a exact version of the HP-UX OS.
I copied the CD thru Roxio software which does not give me option of file system you have mentioned. Please find attached screen shot for the available file system options.
It seems our team has already tried option of dostounix command but that does not help.

Re: CD mount issue in HP-UX
If can login the HPUX server could you give me the output of the uname -a command? Some HPUX versions need to be patched.
Try
# mount -r -F cdfs /dev/dsk/c1t2d0 /cdrom

Re: CD mount issue in HP-UX
The correct mount option is -orr which stands for RockRidge format. Now the filenames will be the original case (lowerUPPER) and the ;1 will be stripped. NOTE: If the -orr option is not shown in the man page for mount_cdfs, then the HP-UX version is too old (long, long out of support) or it has not been patched.
As mentioned, the ^M characters are part of the file. That's because you have copied PC files to the CD and the end of line flag on a PC is CR+LF while in Unix it is just LF. The carriage return is CTRL-M on the keyboard so ^M shows up in vi and other display tools.
You'll have to use dos2ux to translate the files.

Re: CD mount issue in HP-UX
Thanks for the update,
We tried -orr option, but still it mounts in 8.3 format.
We are planing to mount the cd on either windows or linux system & then ftp it to hp-ux. (let me know is there any better way)
Also wanted to know is there any easy method to remove control charaters from files. The dos2ux command removes both required & not required control charaters.
Also the installable size is around 14GB, so wanted to to know is there any automated script which I can apply to remove control characters.
Thanks a lot for all help.

Re: CD mount issue in HP-UX
There are several drag-n-drop ftp programs for Linux including the FireFTP plugin for Firefox. These programs will handle multiple levels of directories.
> installable size is around 14 GB
Is this just a collection of ASCII files or is it an application with executables and other binary files? HP-UX is not a PC so Windows/PC programs are useless on the HP-UX system.
