Hi,

be invited to try the release 0.6.4 of GNU xorriso, a ISO 9660 Rock Ridge
filesystem manipulator. Available on GNU FTP mirrors as
  xorriso/xorriso-0.6.4.tar.gz

It creates, loads, manipulates and writes ISO 9660 filesystem images with
Rock Ridge extensions. Optionally it supports hard links, ACLs, xattr,
and MD5 checksums.
xorriso can load the management information of existing ISO images and it
writes the session results to optical media or to filesystem objects.
Vice versa xorriso is able to copy file objects from ISO 9660 filesystems
to disk.

A special property of xorriso is that it needs neither an external ISO 9660
formatter program nor an external burn program for CD, DVD or BD but rather
incorporates the libraries of libburnia-project.org .


Novelties:

This release includes upcomming libjte which produces Jigdo files along
with the ISO image. Further filesystem images may be appended as MBR
partitions 1 to 4. The capability was added to produce boot blocks for
computers with MIPS CPU.

* New option -jigdo

* New -as mkisofs options -jigdo-* and -md5-list as of genisoimage

* New -as mkisofs options -checksum_algorithm_iso, -checksum_algorithm_template

* New bootspecs mips_path= and mipsel_path= for Debian MIPS releases

* New -as mkisofs options -mips-boot and -mipsel-boot

* New option -append_partition, -as mkisofs -append_partition
