Hello,
we just got the December 1992 GNU/X11 cdrom from Walnut Creek Software.
This disk is in "level 1 ISO-9660 format with Rock Ridge extensions",
that means the full length unix pathnames are available when using an 
appropriate driver. However, when inserting it into our SGI CD-Rom
(connected to an Indigo, 405B) we only see the short names (8.3).
Is there an option to mount or cdromd or another means to mount the
disk using the full filenames ?
Thanks very much,

--
