Hello, Yesterday I tried to make my first bootable CD image with ISOLINUX. IT went fairly well, except that when ISOLINUX boots and tries to load my kernel, I get an error message about having "Bad gzip magic number" and then the system is halted. I have tried with 2 different kernel images, one compiled using make zImage and one with make bzImage. I was under the impression that

Subject of Hint: How to create a Bootable Live CD/DVD from your Linux From Scratch (LFS) build Good day from Singapore, I am Mr. Turritopsis Dohrnii Teo En Ming, based in Singapore. I have recently *successfully* created my own custom Linux distribution called Teo En Ming Linux 2020.03 (FINAL), which is based on Linux From Scratch 20200302-systemd book and Linux Kernel 5.5.7, on 12 March

I'm trying to display a picture on a bootable CD that I'm working on. I tried isolinux-debug.bin, and the printouts we not very helpful. I see 'isolinux: Configuration file opened...', and then it displays the text from my display file (but not the image). Here's the strange thing, syslinux displays the image just fine. I take the appropriate files from the CD, copy

Hi there, I failed to boot an installer in a VMware player (Version6.0.3 build-1895310) using syslinux 6.03, be it off an hybrid ISO image and an USB stick. Booting succeeds if the VM is set to use a BIOS firmware with both media, but fails using an efi firmware. Trying to boot off the ISO image I get an error message "The firmware encountered an unexpected exception" Trying to

Hi, I am trying to track down a ISOLINUX boot problem on my workhorse computer. Booting slax-6.0.0-rc5.iso from www.slax.org (a live distro) from CD gives the following messages: Loading /boot/vmlinuz ........... Loading /boot/initrd.gz ............ Ready. _ Silence. The next message should be, but does not appear: Uncompressing Linux ........... This message appears with the same CD on an old

I've been making modifications to the G4l freshmeat/sourceforge project. Unfortunately, the project person hasn't responded to email, and doesn't seem to have checked in since 11/18. The project is a bootable CD image, and it uses the kernel from kernel.org, and the isolinux. The current setup includes two kernel files called g4l and g4lold. Only those files and the isolinux file

Hello, Im building my own linux CD, For booting I use isolinux. Problem: isolinux cant find kernel. Hierarchy of CD is: /boot/bzImage /boot/isolinux.bin /boot/isolinux.cfg isolinux.cfg file: DEFAULT linux LABEL linux KERNEL bzImage and for maiking iso I use: mkisofs -o name.iso \ -b boot/isolinux.bin -c boot/boot.cat \ -no-emul-boot -boot-info-table -boot-load-size 4 \ -v -J -R -D -A

Hi everyone Im having a little problem here.... I get the following message : Couldn`t find /kernel/bzImage when i try to boot my isolinux CD-Rom Im completly sure i got that file, the tree structure is as follows: /kernel/bzImage /isolinux/{isolinux.cfg,boot.cat,isolinux.bin} among others files, but i think those are the important to find a solution. Do i have to set the root device

Hi Peter, You've done a great job but I have some trouble on enjoying it. I tried to make a ISOLINUX CD, and followed the instructions in isolinux.doc, but dunno where shall I tell the kernel to find the root device? My isolinux.cfg contains only a "kernel bzimage" line. After I run mkisofs command, I test the .iso file on a VMware machine. ISOLINUX load the bzimage and than

Hi, we are the developers of an alternative to mkisofs: program xorriso from libburnia-project.org . The current development cycle is about support for creating bootable CDs, DVDs, BDs. So we look for testers and for advise about ISOLINUX specifics. The example from the ISOLINUX wiki is supposed to work if you replace "mkisofs" by "xorriso -as mkisofs". I.e: xorriso -as

I've created a bootable cd with isolinux but it can't load the kernel. It detects everything fine, decompresses the initrd, loads and decompresses the kernel and then tries to boot the kernel.
