Um, well, I am not comprehending how the path list option works or
what it does. The documentation is not clear to me on that point.

Here is my current CMD file draft for making an ISO file.

# The name of this file is: ecs11cd1.iso
# ---------------------------------------
M:
mkisofs -v -o %H:\ISOIMAGES\ecs11cd1.iso% -r -J -m
-b M:\BOOTIMGS\cdloader.bin -c M:\BOOTIMGS\boot_cat.bin -no-emul-boot
-boot-load-size 4
> /H:\APPS\CDRECORD\makecs11cd1dow.log 2>&1

My source is EVERYTHING in Drive M: without exception.

My destination for the ISO file is: H:\ISOIMAGES

I get the above by hacking together you 2 examples.

-b BOOTIMGS/CDLOADER.BIN -c BOOTIMGS/BOOT_CAT.BIN -no-emul-boot
-boot-load-size 4

> mkisofs -v -o %ISOFILE% -r -J -graft-points -path-list=pathlist.in
>-exclude-list=pathlist.out

Hopefully nap time is finally here.

Thanks
