ISOFS override v0.9
===================

What is ISOFS override?
-----------------------
This patch adds the 'override' option to the iso9660 filesystem. The override
option allows you to override the root-inode mode, uid and gid. I made this
patch, because the Linux Developer's Resource 4-CD Set (March 1995) contains
some CDs which can only be accessed by the superuser due to wrong root-inode
modes.


How to use it
-------------
You only need 'override' if the root-inode mode, uid or gid doesn't satify
your needs. Just add the override option to your normal mount options and
set the correct uid, gid and mode. The mode is prefixed with a zero, because
it's an octal number. If you don't use the zero, then the value is treated
as a decimal value!


Examples:
---------
To allow all users to access the cdrom, you should mount it as:

    # mount /dev/cdrom /cdrom -t iso9660 -r -o 'override,uid=0,gid=0,mode=0755'

Or use this in /etc/fstab to mount the CDROM this way at boottime:

    /dev/cdrom   /cdrom   iso9660   override,uid=0,gid=0,mode=0755,ro
