are you using mkisofs from testing?
Don't. Use the one from stable or unstable.
I've been trying to remaster my knoppix cd but keep getting errors when creating the KNOPPIX image. (even if I don't make any changes to the image)
end_request: I/O Eroor, dev 02:00 (floppy), sector 0
then I get:
MKISOFS: Panic: no space, cannot add RR CE entry (2 bytes missing) for SL-path-split line 539
then it only makes a 280byte KNOPPIX file
if I use mkisofs without the -R option I don't get the errors but the resulting image won't boot
I have 256mb ddr ram with a 3gig swap file enabled. does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
the command I'm using is straight from the how-to

I'm using KNOPPIX v3.2_2003_3_28-en
is this the wrong iso?
(I'm downloading 2003_4_18 right now... will this one work?)
I had a similar problem on my sysem that was corrected in 4-15 build. It had something to do with the Adaptec 29160N card and SCSI drive my Chroot was mounted on. I did the build off of 3-28 but could never get a successful mkisofs run until I booted off of a 4-15 CD I made and it ran fine.
