  • 1.  Help with mouting ISO

    I have an Oracle install DVD. I am trying to mount it as an ISO

    I create the ISO on a RHEL 5.2 using:
    dd if=/dev/hda of=Btest.iso bs=10M

    I can mount the ISO in Red Hat and all looks great. Specifically, I look at the "runInstaller" file name and upper an lower case appear fine. I transferred the file to a Windows box and again once the ISO was mounted, all looked fine.

    I transfer the file to my AIX 5.3 TL7 box, follow the steps to create the logical volume; dd the file to the new lv and mount the lv:
    1. mklv -y cd1lv -t jfs -c 1 datavg 40
    2. dd if=Btest.iso of=/dev/cd1lv bs=10M
    3. mount -v cdrfs -o ro /dev/cd1lv /mnt/grid

    Now when I do a directory, the file name is "runinstaller" (the upper case I has changed to lower case.)

    Is there a way to mount the ISO so that the case of the file names remains intact?

    Any help would be appreciated,...
