I'm trying to figure out how to replace the vmlinuz and initrd.img from CentOS 7.4 with "fixed" kernel-plus versions in order create CentOS 7.4 VM's. So far I'm stuck booting via 7.3 install, adding new kernel-plus and upgrading to 7.4. I've not found any complete Google answers and was looking for help making sure I choose the correct approach. I've tried to build

BUT .. you can edit the lorax template to to use kernel-plus instead of kernel (and new repodata).. then rerun lorax to get a bootable tree and boot.iso You would then need a tree with the new kernel-plus* packages instead of the kernel-* packages This bug kind of explains the process: https://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=137...

I have a customized copy which generates the macboot.img without the shim support. After you've done generating the iso image with xorriso you can just run: isohybrid --uefi --mac image.iso then test this image with qemu and http://tianocore.sourceforge....

Is it at this moment possible to build custom LiveCD images? Are they all necessary tools available in CentOS8? I have never done this and wonder if it is still possible for C8. C7 stuff seems to be here: https://github.com/CentOS/sig-core-livemedia Not quite sure if Fedora howtos can be applied here. Any hints? Thanks, Leon

I've been using various versions of syslinux as the boot loader for the g4l project that I have been the maintainer of since 2004. It was already using syslinux, so I've just updated it over the years, and currently have it use 5.10 version, but have done test builds with the 6.x versions. Recently had request from to users about EFI support, and one suggested that virtualbox has
