Hi,

be invited to try the release 0.6.6 of GNU xorriso, a ISO 9660 Rock Ridge
filesystem manipulator. Available on GNU FTP mirrors as
  xorriso/xorriso-0.6.6.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 can read ISO images which were copied to a different 
start address than they were prepared for. It is now possible to
produce bootable images for SUN SPARC systems.

* Bug fix: -as mkisofs -print-size printed the size but also produced ISO image

* Build problem fix on Linux 2.4 in GNU xorriso libjte/checksum.c

* New -as mkisofs option -joliet-long

* New bootspec sparc_label=, new -as mkisofs options -sparc-boot , -sparc-label

* New option -displacement
