GNU xorriso Description

ISO 9660 Rock Ridge Filesystem Manipulator for GNU/Linux and FreeBSD xorriso is a software that copies 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.Vice versa xorriso is able to copy file objects out of ISO 9660 filesystems.Hardware requirements:About any CD, DVD, or BD recorder produced in the recent ten years.libburn supports recorders which are compliant to standards MMC-1 for CD and MMC-5 for DVD or BD.GNU/Linux and FreeBSD allow to access drives connected via SCSI, PATA (aka IDE, ATA), USB, or SATA.xorriso also operates on ISO images in data files or block devices. Images or add-on sessions may be written to about any kind of file object.Software requirements :GNU/Linux with kernel 2.4 or higher, libc, libpthread : With kernel 2.4 a PATA/IDE drive has to be under ide-scsi emulation. With kernel 2.6 ide-scsi is not needed. or FreeBSD, libc, libpthread : PATA/IDE and SATA drives need atapicam running. libcam has to be installed. libiconv has to be installed. or some other X/Open system, libc, libpthread : There will be no direct operation of optical drives, but only POSIX i/o with objects of the local filesystem. Might work with DVD-RAM, DVD+RW, BD-RE but rather not with CD, DVD-R, DVD+R, BD-R. Optional supporting software:libreadline and libreadline-dev eventually make dialog more convenient. libacl and libacl-devel eventually allow on GNU/Linux to get and set ACLs. zlib and zlib-devel eventually allow zisofs and gzip compression. This program has been tested on GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, and Solaris systems. Here are some key features of "GNU xorriso": · ISO 9660 formatter and burner for CD, DVD, BD are fixely integrated. · Operates on an existing ISO image or creates a new one. · Copies files from filesystem into the ISO image and vice versa. · Changes file properties, renames or deletes file objects in the ISO image. · Updates ISO subtrees incrementally to match given disk subtrees. · Can record and restore hard link relations, ACL, and xattr. · Can attach MD5 checksums to each data file and the whole session. · File content may get zisofs or gzip compressed or filtered by external processes. · Writes result as completely new image or as add-on session to optical media or filesystem objects. · Can activate ISOLINUX boot images by El Torito boot record. · Can perform multi-session tasks as emulation of mkisofs and cdrecord. · Can issue commands to mount older sessions on GNU/Linux or FreeBSD. · Can check media for damages and copy readable blocks to disk. · Scans for optical drives, blanks re-useable optical media, formats media. · Suitable for: CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+R DL, DVD+RW, DVD-RAM, BD-R, BD-RE. · Reads its instructions from command line arguments, dialog, and batch files. · Provides navigation commands for interactive ISO image manipulation. What's New in This Release: Bug fixes towards xorriso-0.4.8.pl00: · Regression in libisofs introduced with xorriso-0.4.2: -boot_image isolinux patch could lead to SIGSEGV · On FreeBSD: xorriso could leave the drive tray locked · On FreeBSD: Piped input was falsely attributed a small fixed size · xorriso -update_r could lead to SIGSEGV if applied to a data file Enhancements towards previous stable version xorriso-0.4.8.pl00: · Transition of documentation and program messages towards GNU xorriso · New option -scsi_log
