    Hi,

    I have the created mksysb file. According to the log it has created successfully. I am trying to create a CD for the mksysb using mkcd (or mkdvd). I am writing the file to a NFS share (where the mksysb file is located). As soon as the process starts I receive a "Mount Volume 2: mksysb filename".

    I have tried all different params to no success.

    Has anyone else seen this?

    Thanks

    I am unable to chmod the NFS mount, the ownership is nobody:nobody.

    I understand the ownership to be because root is not set up on the NFS mount. Why would I not be able to change permissions?
