"mkisofs"–-a Free UDF Disk Image Backup Utility from HELIOS
The free public domain disk image utility "mkisofs" received major enhancements by HELIOS Software engineers to enable flexible disk image creation for archiving and backup tasks. HELIOS added support to archive hundreds of thousands of files/folders into disk images without any size limitations.
Helmut Tschemernjak, president and founder of HELIOS Software notes: "Today's growing disk capacities and inexpensive external disk systems allow storing read-only archives quickly on disk instead of burning media or using proprietary tape formats. We turned "mkisofs" into a general purpose solution which allows archiving Mac, Windows, and UNIX specific files with their attributes into UDF disk images which can easily be mounted by Mac and Windows users."
In addition, UGSoft developed a useful utility to operate HELIOS "mkisofs" from a graphical user interface (GUI). This comes in handy for those who are not too familiar with CLI programs. The "mkisofs" GUI tool is free of charge and can be downloaded from the UGSoft Web site.
