I have found that the error must come from the -l option which is passed = with catalyst, when I manually run the command, -l option change the charset to ISO-8859-1 which one is found in= my locale, but when the command is run from catalyst the script failed and mkisofs is unable to find my ISO-8859-1 charset fro= m my locale. Did someone have an idea about something I have missed, perhaps an argume= nt in my stage2 spec file? Thanks. http://www.drakonix.fr
