Exactly what i need for experiments. Thanks a lot. (slint64-current-goofiboot.iso and slint64-current-efi-stub.iso were already in my collection.)

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

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.

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, > 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
