Hi,

Well, not really correct. On standard ISO 9660 CDs there is no such
thing as a linkcount. Our cd9660 filesystem just implements the stat
call in a way to return a linkcount of 1 for directories on a
standard 9660 CD without extensions.
As an analysis of the CD in question (Georges sent a dump of the
root directory my way) has shown, it does use Rock Ridge Extensions
and records a linkcount of 2 for the root directory despite the fact
that there are more directories on the CD.
Ciao,
Wolfgang
