Are you sure that's squashfs, or the kickstart image size?
I ran into that too, but it was the image size.
The mkisofs documentation says this should happen
at 2 GiB. So I am not entirely sure what gives there.
You may be correct.
I suspect it was one track, but I don't know for sure. I used k3b
and the
burn iso dvd tool.
k3b actually uses several tools. It can use dvd+rw-tools as well.
E.g., DVD+R media is actually DVD+RW, and nothing like CD-R or DVD-R.
DVD+RW Consortium (Sony/Philips) firmware also has a different focus
than DVD Consortium (Matsushita/Pioneer) drives.
But there aren't many files visible at that level. A few things
in the
equivalent of /boot and the rest is the file containing the squashfs
file system.
But doesn't the PC BIOS' El Torito support need to read the Yellow Book
track to get to them? That's what I assumed, but I could be wrong. I
mean, it still has to load ISOLinux.
