Actually, now with the fully working mkisofs-isos I retried the boot time. When I did the previous timing I was under the impression it created correct isos for me as it did boot and appeared to work...

I have cleaned up the code a bit and moved most of the directory entry functionality into its own class. Haven't looked at the if __name__ == "__main__" yet, but sounds like a good idea.

The problem was that I sorted on directory entry names including the last ";1" part of it. That made kick34005.A500 and kick34005.A500.RTB appear in the opposite order. Pushed a quick update.

Cheers, will take a look!

Regarding the btw, that is a good solution. However, if we just get the iso creation fast enough, you won't care. The < 10second ISOCD build for our 281MB iso already is...

I retract my earlier statement about the path table being ok, of course it is also sorted case insensitive amongst entries in the same directory. Mkisofs @#€%!.

It would have been a neat solution to create a sort file with all the paths in the right order, but the docs (http://www.fifi.org/doc/mkisofs/README.sort) say:Note: this option does not sort the...

Noticed another issue with dots in filenames and mkisofs. You have to specify -ldots to have leading dots, else it will convert ".start" to "_start". Also, to be able to use dots anywhere inside the...
