similar to: syslinux/ioslinux direct support for bootable iso images

Hi, I was wondering what's the best standard file extension for zipped DOS disk images and ramdisks. I've been using the following standard: .zi kernels, memtest86, memdisk .igz .img.gz zipped floppy images and ramdisks I'd rather have a different extension for ramdisks, maybe .zim zipped floppy images .zrd zipped ramdisks Any ideas ? It would also be nice if syslinux

Hi, is it possible to convert a bootable raw hdd image including grub (originally created with grml-debootstrap) to a bootable iso somehow? Cheers, adrelanos

Hello List I have a Bootable USB stick that we use to Boot our servers and then install CentOS, PostgreSQL and our SW thru a Kickstart script. It works like a charm but now we are thinking of going Virtual and prepping Virtual CentOS servers under VMware ESXi. However, to have the same "Boot and Install" functionality I see no other solution than Booting a VMware machine from an ISO.

Hi, This is not exactly an R question but I am trying to use gsub to replace a string that contains 5-9 alpha-numeric characters, at least one of which is a number. Is there a good way to write it in a one line regex? Thanks, Richard

Hello, I want to modify isolinux.cfg of a given, bootable iso (of Linux CentOs installation) according to my needs. The things is : I copy the contents of that iso to a different directory. I modify the isolinux.cfg according to my needs. Then what? I had of course googled for it. I had tried afterwards: mkisofs -o centos1.iso -b isolinux/isolinux.bin -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-i But

Hello, I am trying to make a usb stick full of utilities. However some of the utilities do not use syslinux, and are iso's. Is there any method available for turning the iso into a bootable drive img to be used with memdisk? -- Dimeneira aka Dime

If you have questions about xorrisofs, then just ask me. :)) The web page advises to install genisoimage, a mkisofs clone, but shows its examples with

Hi, > I only have the vaguest > understand of what the flags in the man page of xorrisofs and xorriso are. The options reflect a long tradition of program mkisofs and the winded road of boot firmware entry points in ISO 9660 filesystems. So one cannot expect to find much of a common system in them. > there doesn't seem to > exist a hello word like exercise that is simple and

I would like to create a bootable DVD containing Win7 from an official Microsoft ISO that I have on a CentOS-6.5 box. Is this even possible? If so then how is it done using CentOS? If I must create a Win7 repair disk on a Windows machine then this will be possible, but somewhat logistically challenging. I would much rather just get it done with the tools I have to hand. -- ***

Thanks for that info, it makes the USB stick bootable. This will make kickstart installations so much easier, especially for systems that don?t have a CD-ROM (we used to have to scrounge for an

Hey all, We've developed our own microserver platform sitting on top of CentOS 5.4. We deploy them in many locations and normally use netbooks for this purpose. This has worked fine for years, except most netbooks have started to disappear (in Australia). The lowest price hardware I found the other day was the ASUS F201E (X201E in USA). It is the right size at the right price... but it

Sorry if this is a total noob question... I've searched the archives and haven't turned up much. Not turning up much on the web in general, either. I'm working on a project and I'd like to create a Linux bootable ISO disc with an extra chunk of data **outside** the ISO space. This chunk of data might be a 10MB tar/zip. The goal would be to boot into Linux in RAM off the disc

I?ve been creating slightly modified CentOS netinstall ISO images using the following steps: Copy contents of CentOS netinstall ISO image to a temporary directory Edit isolunux/isolinux.cfg file Create new ISO image using the following command: mkisofs -o new.iso -b isolinux/isolinux.bin -c isolinux/boot.cat -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table -R -J -v -T /tmp/iso I?ve been using

I was trying to follow this tutorial https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomizationFromScratch. i got confused with the part about Create an isolinux.cfg file. The show stopper for me was the mkisofs because the closest command I had available was xorrisofs and I think a switch was different.
