HP-UX pfs CD-ROM driver

HP-UX does not support the Rock Ridge CD-ROM extensions with the CD-ROM driver. To resolve this limitation, HP has a licensed a 3rd party solution called pfs (portable file system) which is included with HP-UX 10.10 and above. Pfs is a user-mode solution (not a kernel driver) and needs no kernel modification or patch.

Quoting from a HP WWW page:

Portable File System (PFS) is Now Available and Supported by HP

The Portable File System (PFS) CD-ROM driver from Young Minds, Inc. that supports Rock Ridge, High Sierra and ISO 9660 formatted CD-ROM discs, is now available and supported by HP for HP-UX 9.*. This is the software that will allow you to convert upper-case characters to their native "lower case".

The pfs extension used to be available for download for HP-UX 9.x as well (it was required to install a software package) but HP has since removed the file from its ftp server.
