similar to: modifying isolinux.cfg of a given, bootable iso

While developing a custom distro based on CentOS we experienced a "strange" problem: the cd didn't boot on some machines where it previously did. We build the cd using this command: bootimg='isolinux/isolinux.bin' bootcat='isolinux/boot.cat' #mkisopts='-r -N -L -d -D -J' mkisopts='-r -J' mkisofs $mkisopts \ -V "$distname

Hello List, I have used isolinux for years without problems. Recently I decided to upgrade from 3.09 to 3.11. Every CD I create can be read on my Vectra (Pentium 3) and all other Pentium 3 boxes, but all my Pentium 4 boxes will not boot (they ignore the CD and boot from hard disk). The bochs VM will boot the CDs fine just like the Pentium 3 machines. I have tried 3.09 (which worked

You say you can ping but not ssh. If you install tcpdump on the VM, can you see the ping packets arriving and leaving? If not, I suspect an address collision - especially if ping continues to work with the VM shut down. If you can't ping, check the other end of your bridge. I'm more familiar with open vSwitch, but I'm somewhat concerned that your bridge definition doesn't include a

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.

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

Hello, I tried to make an automatic install bootable CD, with a kickstart file. I use this command to create my CD : sudo mkisofs -v -r -T -b isolinux/isolinux.bin -c isolinux/boot.cat -J -o InstallCD.iso -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table -hide-rr-moved . I copied all the contents of the CD #1, on a InstallCD dir, on copied my ks.cfg file into the isolinux directory. When I

hi! I?m working on a projekt ( unattended.sourceforge.net ) This is using a linuxboot.iso My problem is the following: I opened up the iso with winiso, extrcat the isolinux.cfg, edited it with vi for windows as follows: # isolinux/pxelinux configuration file default unattended label unattended kernel bzImage # Add options (z_user=..., z_path=..., etc.) to this line. append

I have tried to use isolinux 2.05, and I am running into a problem where it will not boot. I have previously used version 1.66, and the older version works just fine. Changing nothing except dropping the new version in does not work. Below is all of the relevant info, I believe. This occurs on multiple machines with different BIOS. I am currently in process of doing a binary search to find the

Hello, i'm just curious, why the -boot-load-size 4 for mkisofs with isolinux.bin is needed. I searched the list archive and found nothing and found nothing anywhere else. Since the isolinux.bin is much bigger than 4 * 512 byte, I'd suspect, it wont get completely loaded. With -boot-load-size 4, mkisofs reports: Size of boot image is 4 sectors -> No emulation Without it, mkisofs

Hi there, I'm new to Centos. I've installed version 6.5 x86_64. I'm coming from slackware/debian utilizzation environment. I'm trying to setup libvirt and qemu-kvm, but I have some problems.

hi, I want to prepeare a CD which will use isolinux to boot so I got the source code of isolinux. Unfortunately I couldn't find enough document to satify my needs.Therefore I got the isolinux folder of Xubuntu CD and I have modified the isolinux.cfg file.My content of modified isolinux.cfg file is shown below. DEFAULT /boot/kernel-2.6.16.24-49 GFXBOOT bootlogo APPEND boot=boot

Hello, I'm Jacques living in France. I have a problem when I use isolinux. I'm working on a multiboot cdrom so I make many "mkisofs" for testing. The problem is that when I modify the "isolinux.cfg" file and then build my image with mkisofs it's the previous configuration of my "isolinux.cfg" which appears on my screen (I run the .iso file with qemu...)

I have added a few custom RPM's to my CentOS 5.2 CD, dropped a kickstart.cfg file in the root of the CD, and now want to change the isolinux.cfg in the boot.iso so that it will automatically do a kickstart install when the CD boots up. I am using buildinstall to make the ISO. I edited the isolinux.cfg in /isolinux in my CentOS 5.2 distribution tree off of which I am building my ISO. But

I am trying to rebuild Red Hat Linux 9 on DVD. I am using the provided isolinux 2.00 (I tried the latest 2.04, with the same results), and I get an error trying to boot from the DVD. I burned the boot.iso (basically a triple-wide boot disk using the same isolinux directory) to DVD, and it booted fine. The error I get when booting the DVD using isolinux-debug.bin is this (copied by hand):

Greetings, I have been using isolinux with Microsoft's cdimage.exe for my Utility / Preinstallation cds. I just upgraded from 3.36 to 3.55 and found it to be non functional. I didn't use the -debug version, it just hangs at the version banner. I went through several previous versions, and it appears that 3.50-pre23 is the last working version. I didn't see anything between that

Hi, I am trying to build a custom installer for a popular linux distro on MacOS.

Hi all, I am at the end of my wits, after a day and a half of mucking around with this :) My intention was to take a multi-boot DVD - of the style you get with an MSDN subscription - and burn an individual installer to disc. How to do this? My theory was to take the files for the installation CD, add isolinux, add a bootsector, and away I go. Unfortunately it doesn't seem this easy. So I
