No, it didn't help.

cat i386/isolinux/iso.sort
isolinux 2147483647

mkisofs -b isolinux/isolinux.bin -c isolinux/boot.cat \
-sort i386/isolinux/iso.sort -J -p "email" -P "Red Hat" \
-V "Red Hat 9/8.0/7.3 DVD" -r -T -v \
-A "Red Hat Linux/i386 9" -o redhat9-80-73-dvd.iso \
-no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table -l \
i386/

This was the 1.8 GB version using isolinux-2.00, and it stopped in the 
same place.

Thanks,

Forrest
