31 I'm not sure this will help but I have app-cdr/cdrtools-2.01.01_alpha42
32 installed and it appears to show the mkisofs man page. You may want to
33 emerge that. I don't think you can have cdrkit and cdrtools installed
34 at the same time tho. If it helps any, I can burn both CDs and DVDs
35 with what I have installed.
36
37 If you want a copy of the man page, I would be glad to email you what I
38 have off list.
39
40 Hope that helps.
