What are the restrictions on using long filenames on the CD?

0

[Contributed by Scott D. Wares] The following switches enable long filenames in the final ISO image generated by mkisofs: • -J Joliet (Adding this extension should make the long filenames compatible with earlier versions of Windows) • -r Rockridge (This is one of the most common long filename formats) However, BootScriptor itself only supports 8.3 short filenames. So you can use long filenames on the CD but you cannot use them with the boot system or the image names.
