Hi. I have a winblows box over here from which I am trying to copy my linux kernel tar archive, and speakup. I plan to untar everything on the linux box, and then try to compile speakup, my linksys net driver, among other things into my 2.4.17 kernel. However, Roxio easy cd creator on the box over here tries to re-name speakup-1.00.tar.gz, to speakup_1.0_tar.gz. It also re-names linux-2.4.17.tar.gz, to a similar name. I believe that it is doing this because it conforms to the Umsdos standard of file naming? Someone please correct me if I am wrong. Does anyone know a way in which I can get around this by possibly using other burning software? Because I know that iso9660 let's you have multiple extensions, as is often the case with linux i.e., readme.debian.gz.sign. I have considered translation tables, but in talking to one of my linux friends about it, we found it a little short of impractical. If anyone wants to mail me privately on their suggestions, please send the message to igueths@yahoo.com. Or, you can respond on-list. Either way is fine with me. Thanks in advance for your help!

Igor
