If it complains about a kernel then it should be past El Torito or GPT. The job of xorriso is to point BIOS and EFI to their boot images. Everything else is in the scope of the boot images resp. the operating system that shall

I have been using syslinux-6.x along with isohybrid --mac and --efi option to create a usb hybrid iso with EFI support. The thing with EFI is that you'll need to use grub as your bootloader for EFI but isohybrid does setup the proper partition schema for EFI. You'll need to use the following to generate an iso that works. xorriso -as mkisofs -J -R -l -V some-vol-label \ -o ../image.iso

Hi, Ian Bannerman: > I did not know the Perl version did not support the EFI/Mac changes. Comparing the help texts of http://git.kernel.org/cgit/boot/syslinux/syslinux.git/tree/utils/isohybrid.c and http://git.kernel.org/cgit/boot/syslinux/syslinux.git/tree/utils/isohybrid.in shows that the latter lacks: -u --uefi Build EFI bootable image -m --mac Add AFP table support

When running xorriso as mkisofs with isohybrid mbr and gpt basdat you must not run isohybrid afterwards. Please also post the isos geometry as reported by parted (before and after just for curiosity).

Hi, i have implemented in xorriso the equivalents of isohybrid.c options --mac and --uefi. There remains the question how to ensure that the submitted MBR is prepared for the 32 byte mock-up of an APM Block0. I see in git of may 2012 that all mbr/isohdp[fp]x*.bin begin by 33 ed 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90

HI, In http://slint.fr/misc/MacBoot/ you'll find all context information. All files referenced here are stored there. Long story short: once dd-ed on an USB stick the ISO image can boot on a BIOS or EFI machine, but I want it to be able to boot on most x86_64 Macs with an EFI firmware. Unfortunately I get the error message: isohybrid: slint64-14.1.iso: unable to find mac efi image The

Hi, it comes to me that there is already an option which can be used to enforce a new Section Header before the entry which describes macboot.img. Option -eltorito-id can be used to set the Id String of the Section Header of the current boot image. efiboot.img is to be stored under the default Id String of 28 0-bytes. So a new Section Header will emerge, if macboot.img gets attributed a

Hello everyone, I am maintaining a distribution loosely based on LFS and am now trying to add UEFI support. Integrating a FAT formatted partition image containing, preloader, gummiboot, kernel and initramfs correctly results in a ISO image that is bootable on BIOS and UEFI systems if booted from the optical drive. However, when I run isohybrid --uefi name-of.iso the resulting GPT entry for

Hi, > I don't understand why you say "*But* the El Torito...". I don't see > a difference with what the mkisofs manual says. The manual announces "Mac" for Apple Mac. The program obviously writes Platform Id 1 in this case. The El Torito specs say "Platform ID 0 = 80x86 1=Power PC 2=Mac". In the sum this does not match. A bug in mkisofs would be the

At least the ISO will then have MBR, GPT and APM entries for the file macboot.img. I did that, and also tried the xorriso command you posted. I uploaded both ISO images on http://slint.fr/misc/MacBoot resp. renamed: slint64-14.1-Thomas_mkisofs.iso

Hi, if I inspect an hybrid ISO with tools like fdisk and gdisk, then looks like hybrid ISO has both the MBR and GPT in order to support both the BIOS and UEFI: # gdisk -l /dev/sdb GPT fdisk (gdisk) version 0.8.10 Partition table scan: MBR: MBR only BSD: not present APM: not present GPT: present Found valid MBR and GPT. Which do you want to use? 1 - MBR 2 - GPT 3 - Create blank GPT
