I have the same problem! Have you tired "-udf" switch "-iso-level 3"
or both of them?
The problem is for "-iso-level 3" switch only, now I will try to use
both and share the results.

The original file is 4686887250 bytes long and has
5dea4dc0d18def1978235bb4c4201569 md5 sum.

The file created only with "-iso-level 3" switch is doubled and is
4294965248 bytes long and has 468f66d3d54eb06e7797106ce53a762b md5
sum.

The file created both with "-udf -iso-level 3" switches is, just as
above, also doubled and is 4294965248 bytes long and has
468f66d3d54eb06e7797106ce53a762b md5 sum.

All this was done with latest alpha version of cdrtools:
%mkisofs -version
mkisofs 2.01.01a72 (i386-unknown-freebsd8.0) Copyright (C) 1993-1997
Eric Youngdale (C) 1997-2009 J�rg Schilling

Joerg, how about that? You mentioned that genisoimage will produce
broken filesystem and hidden messages, while mkisofs also does not
produce correct data, or we still miss something :-(

Please advise,
Tomek

I used just the "--iso-level 3".
Unfortunately I'm out of DVDs right now (don't use them much), or I'd do
some experimenting.

Actually, I had read what he said about genisofs/cdrkit and found it a bit
odd, as ISTR using all that in Debian with fine results in the recent past...

BTW. cdrecord identifies my drive as "Generic mmc2 DVD-R/DVD-RW/DVD-RAM".
The machine is an intel mac mini core2duo 2GHz with "superdrive" (Pioneer
DVD-RW DVR-K06).
Media is Verbatin DVD+R DL. (rebooting into OS X I can burn without issues
on this media).

Tomek, I added a loophole to my scorefile to unblock you after seeing your
posts via someone else's replies (as I've done with five other posters here).

Cheers,

What does that mean? I do post via google...


Well about the filesystems - I have checked the filesystem generated
with:

1. mkisofs -iso-level 3
-it contains malformed and doubled trucated files
-it does not mount as UDF (mount_udf: /dev/cd1: Invalid argument)

2. mkisofs -iso-level 3 -udf
-it contains malformed files as above when mounted as ISO9660
-it does mount as UDF (mount -t udf) and then contains one file, the
checksum is correct (5dea4dc0d18def1978235bb4c4201569, filesize
4686887250)

3. genisoimage -iso-level 3 -allow-limited-size
-without explicte giving the "-udf" parameter it can be mounted as UDF
filesystem and chekcsum of the large file seems to be correct
(5dea4dc0d18def1978235bb4c4201569, filesize 4686887250)

It looks that the only working combination of the new mkisofs is the "-
udf -iso-level 3" and then disk must be mounted as UDF, otherwise
large files will be doubled and truncated.

Can anyone confirm that?

Best regards,
Tomek

ps/2: Indi - you can use DVD+RW for experiments - this will save your
resources and the environment :-)
