-C <boot file name> when you create a boot CD, mkisofs will make all the content in the boot image file-eltorito-catalog <boot file name> into a file.
-C <Disk Area Number, disk area number> this parameter must be used to synthesize an image file in many sections.
-Copyright <copyright information File> specifies the file name of the copyright information file.
-D or-omit-period is the end time after the object is omitted.
-D or-disable-deep-relocation ISO 9660 can only process a maximum of eight levels of directories. For more than eight layers of directories, RRIP automatically sets them to ISO 9660 compatible formats. Use the-D parameter to disable this function.
