ISO 9660 Rock Ridge Filesystem Manipulator for Linux

+
+ +

+

Purpose:

+xorriso maps file objects from POSIX compliant filesystems +into Rock Ridge enhanced ISO 9660 filesystems and allows +session-wise manipulation of such filesystems. It can load the management +information of existing ISO images and it writes the session results to +optical media or to filesystem objects. +

+

+ +

+ +Direct hop to download links -> + +

+

Hardware requirements:

+A CD/DVD recorder suitable for +http://libburnia-project.org
+(SCSI , ATA , USB , or SATA writers compliant to standard MMC-3 for CD +and to MMC-5 for DVD). +
+

+ +

+

Software requirements :

+
+
Linux with kernel 2.4 or higher (and libc, of course) :
+
With kernel 2.4 an ATA drive has to be under ide-scsi emulation.
+
With kernel 2.6 the drive should not be under ide-scsi.
+
libpthread
+
is supposed to be a standard system component.
+
libreadline and libreadline-dev
+
are optional and eventually make dialog more convenient.
+
+

+ +

+

+GPL software included:
+

+
+
libburn-0.4.1
+
reads and writes data from and to CD and DVD.
+
(founded by Derek Foreman and Ben Jansens, +furthered by team of libburnia-project.org)
+
libisofs-1.0.0
+
operates ISO 9660 images.
+
(By Vreixo Formoso from team of libburnia-project.org)
+
libisoburn-0.1.0
+
coordinates libburn and libisofs, emulates multi-session where needed.
+
(By Vreixo Formoso and Thomas Schmitt +from team of libburnia-project.org)
+
+
The source code of this software is independent of +cdrecord and mkisofs. +
+

+ +

+This program system has been tested on Intel/AMD Linux systems only.
+For ports to other usable systems contact us. +

Commands:

Get an overview of drives and their addresses
+
# xorriso -devices
+
Being superuser avoids permission problems with /dev/srN resp. /dev/hdX . +
+
Ordinary users should then get granted rw access to the /dev files +as listed by option -devices.
+
 
+ +
Options are either performed as program arguments or as dialog input. +Some options have a parameter list of variable length. This list has to +be terminated by word '--' or by the end of the input line. Option -add +may accept pathspecs of form target=source as known from program mkisofs.
+ +
+ +
Get info about a particular drive or loaded media:
+
$ xorriso -dev /dev/sr0 -toc
+ +
Make re-usable media writable from scratch again:
+
$ xorriso -dev /dev/sr0 -blank fast -eject all
+ +
+
+
+ +
Write some directories into a new or existing ISO 9660 image:
+
$ xorriso -dev /dev/sr0 -add /home/me/sounds /home/me/pictures +
+ +
+
+
+ +
Create new ISO-9660 filesystem image, compose content, +adjust permissions to make it publicly read-only, +write it to media, eject media. +
+
$ xorriso -outdev /dev/sr0 -blank fast -pathspecs on \
+
  -add /sounds=/home/me/sounds \
+
       +/pictures=/home/me/pictures -- \
+
  -rm_r /sounds/indecent '/pictures/*private*' -- \
+
  -add /pictures/private/horses=/home/me/pictures/private/horses -- \

  -chmod_r a+r,a-w / -- \
+
  -find / -type d -exec chmod a+x \
+
  -volid SOUNDS_PICS_2008_01_16 \
+
  -commit -eject all
+ +
+
+
+ +
Load the previous session from media, +remove (i.e. hide) directory /sounds, +rename /pictures/private/horses, +add new directory trees /sounds and /movies, +disallow any access for group and others. +Finally write as additional session to media and eject:
+
$ xorriso -dev /dev/sr0 -pathspecs on \
+
  -rm_r /sounds -- \
+
  -mv /pictures/private/horses /horse_show -- \
+
  -add /sounds=/home/me/prepared_for_dvd/sounds_dummy \
+
       /movies=/home/me/prepared_for_dvd/movies -- \
+
  -chmod_r go-rwx / -- \
+
  -volid SOUNDS_PICS_2008_01_17 \
+
  -commit -eject all
+ +
+
+
+ +
Merge the various sessions from old readable media into a single session +on new writeable media, +cleaning out all invalidated files and session overhead. +Touch / in order to mark the image as worth to be written. +
+Important: -indev and -outdev have to be different drives. +
+
$ xorriso -indev /dev/dvd \
+
  -alter_date a +0 / -- \
+
  -outdev /dev/sr0 -blank fast \
