oddity: strange file names on CD

I recently mounted a CD to load some new software. After changing to the proper directory, I found all the files had the characters (.;1) (my parens) after the file name. I wasn't able to find any other threads relating to this subject...has anyone else seen it?

Re: oddity: strange file names on CD

what switches do you use with your mount command ? You must have used -F cdfs but also check the -o options in particular the Rock Ridge or no rockridge options ( rr norr)

check man mount_cdfs for details

How did you mount the CD. I'd sujest using
RockRidge.

For 11.0 :

PHKL_28060 PHCO_26449 PHKL_26450

For 11.11:

PHKL_25760 PHCO_25841 PHKL_26269

Those may be out of date but it's what I have.

Then to mount

/usr/sbin/mount -F cdfs -e -o ro,rr device
