Looks like you're messing up with slashes and backslashes ... if I remember well, mkisofs doesn't like backslashes as directory separators.

thank you for reply,
though it is not giving any error for back slash..
.... i tried it by also by making the correction with the back slashes
ie. back slashes[\] are replaced with forward slash[/] , still it is not working.
Also when i specify some files to exclude as
exclude-files-list.txt ---
rahul
then it removes the uppermost directory rahul. Following is the directory structure
if i want to remove the folder /people/rahul/rahul which contains 1.jpg, 2.jpg,3.jpg thwn what entry should be in the exclude file.
problem 2)
the exclude file accepts only one entry as only a file name e.g 1.jpg or the wild card *.jpg
if i add more than one entry separated by space it doesn't work either for single entry and all files get included.
eg. in order to remove the files 1) /people/sandip/1.jpg and
2) /people/rahul/1.psd
what shoud be the content of exclude file?

Hmm you may try "people*1.*" not sure it will work though, depends on if it considers it as a regular expression or just the dos-like wildcard system...
Anyway, I guess it would be more simple if you created a directory where you would copy all the files you want and not the files you don't, that would avoid these problems with the excluding system, as it doesn't seem easy to get it working.
