Paolo: but what utility do you use in windoze to create the iso ?

Someone who has an access to AROS building scripts can look what command is used on sourceforge to build it (and what genisoimage version is used). I remember there was problems with some new genisoimage versions not so long ago.
This can be also related to file permissions somehow ...

VmwAROS and genisomage issues

Sorry if I'm here again with the same stupid question of the last time, however fonts appearing like this:

Resized Image

Well, this time I decided that I MUST understand why this is happening and, first of all, why it's happening UNDER LINUX ONLY, 'cos if I try to build the ISO with mkisofs for Windows the fonts appear correctly. I can't burn con.* files, however.

Well, first of all, I did these passages:

- reinstalled Mepis 7 from scratch

- made these steps (from AROS.org compiling page)

Quote:
"Setting the locale to ISO8859"

This step is not strictly necessary. However, file names with accented characters will not be reproduced properly if it is not done. Just find the en_US iso 8859-1 string in the list provided by the following applications and choose it:

> sudo apt-get install localeconf
> sudo dpkg-reconfigure localeconf

Then we will set the console's locale:

> sudo locale-gen "en_US"
> sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales
> export LANG="en_US.ISO-8859-1"


- gave this command:

genisoimage -o vmwaros.iso -b boot/grub/iso9660_stage1_5
-c boot/boot.catalog -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table -allow-leading-dots -output-charset iso8859-1 -V "VmwAROS" -publisher "vmwaros.org" -D -r -J -sysid "AROS" vmwaroslive

And got some missing directories. Please notice this screenshot:

Resized Image

On the LEFT you see the directory Fonts as it is expected to be. On the RIGHT the one I got with -r in genisoimage parameters.

So I decided to turn -r into -R (there has been a long discussion about this in
this other thread):

genisoimage -o vmwaros.iso -b boot/grub/iso9660_stage1_5
-c boot/boot.catalog -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table -allow-leading-dots -output-charset iso8859-1 -V "VmwAROS" -publisher "vmwaros.org" -D -R -J -sysid "AROS" vmwaroslive

And i went a little further:

Resized Image

As you can see, at least now directories appear to be OK, however I continue getting this fucking topaz font, dunno why.Please notice file names in Locales are right, with correct "foreign" characters.

What's wrong, so? Please help me, I don't want to make this ISO again with Windows: I'm sick to create scripts only to place the AROS con.* files as they were expected to stay... Thanks, and many regards,
