416: multisession dvd bug

July 15, 2009 — BarryK
I'm stuck right now. Testing saving back to the DVD, when running 'growisofs' get this error:

Rock Ridge signatures found
genisoimage: Error: '(null)' and '/..' have the same ISO9660 name ''.
genisoimage: Error: '(null)' and '/..' have the same Rock Ridge name '..'.
Unable to sort directory
:-( mkisofs has failed: 1


The is a significant lack of any information about this when I did a quick google.

just using "have the same ISO9660 name" threw up a few references, here's one: http://www.mail-archive.com/cdwrite@other.debian.org/msg12415.html

"Hi Barry, thanks for your time and efforts! [b]serial mouse?[/b] I booted 416 on live-cd with serial mouse connected: upon Xorg setup,no mouse setup; the cursor stayed fix - maybe have I confused something? Does Puppy416 as future 4.3 any longer work with a serial mouse? [b]Seamonkey Mail[/b] Rebooting with a ps/2 mouse I could not start Seamonkey Mail by clicking on the Mail icon. But it starts through selecting it in Seamonkey Web Browser/window/Mail. [b]Wine[/b] I also boot up puppy416 using a pup4save-wine415A.2fs where Wine1112_415.sfs (411 renamed to 415 !) is installed. The graphic application on wine is running well. I also noticed that opening winecfg's audio thumbnail and further sound testing gives a beep (i.e. is working on 416! - did not on 413 and 415); whereas it did not on my basis ToutouLinux 4.1.2 which is featured with Timidity++2.13 and some additionnals sound libraries as jack and oss. [b]abiword 2.6.3 and .docx format[/b] Abiword 2.6.3 on puppy 4.2.1 has .docx format; whereas abiword 2.6.3 on puppy416 and earlier do not. Receiving mails with .docx attachment it would be [b]nice to have[/b] abiword featured with .docx reading capability, would'nt it? That also to avoid installation of the huge OpenOffice archive.

"Hi, on 416 installed frugal: Exit puppy after choice for pup4save.2fs [b]'save to partition'[/b] where puppy416 is installed. Then, restart as whitout loading the pup4save.2fs and asking again the keyboard setup, etc... (I have only 392MB free on that partition - maybe not enough?) OK if [b]'save to file'[/b] - the saved pup4save.2fs is well saved and loaded at upon boot. Charlie
