Of course, piranna could set up an EFI capable disk boot image by help of SYSLINUX. But that would not boot from optical media.

I'm trying to install SysLinux on a disk image as part of NodeOS automated build process, but seems SysLinux requires administrative priviledges. I suposse this is needed because `syslinux` command try to mount the disk image / device to store the needed files, that otherwise would be have been written before and this step omitted. The other half would be to write the MBR bootloader, that

There must be some way for GRUB/GRUB2 to escape from FAT into the ISO. debian-7.7.0-amd64-netinst.iso does the job by a bootx64.efi binary of 421888 bytes. It&...

Quoting http://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php/Isohybrid#UEFI: "The additional isohybrid feature for UEFI adds a partition to the MBR partition table pointing to the same file in the ISO 9660 filesystem as does the El Torito catalog entry for EFI." According to this (and can be see using fdisk) it's being created a partition-inside-partition just by setting its start and end

...for booting from ISO 9660 via UEFI. Currently there is no example around which would succeed without GRUB or GRUB2. When describing the UEFI aspects of isohybrid in the wiki, i left this question open in the hope that somebody would show a pure SYSLINUX example of UEFI isohybrid. The questions of piranna were not the first time that we had to explain our non-knowledge around ISOLINUX and UEFI. The wiki needs clarification. > I am still of the opinion that the whole FAT "efiboot.img" issue is not > about _isohybrid_, but about how GRUB2 does it. It is about what UEFI expects (wit...
