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.

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

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

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

Hi, i have implemented in xorriso the equivalents of isohybrid.c options --mac and --uefi.
