If you have questions about xorrisofs, then just ask me. :)) The web page advises to install genisoimage, a mkisofs clone, but shows its examples with

Add very basic pages for: isohybrid - It's not particularly more useful than --help, but my QA department really wants this to exist. memdiskfind - Explain what it does and its invocation.

My test script on RHEL 7.1 creates that even if I could make it smaller as the kernel + initrd fits in less than 32 MB. So let me make that try first ! o I changed myline in the script to dd a 30 MB image file, burt the ISO with it, and

Hi, i think i found a suspect in lzo/prepcore.c and it would indeed be a wrong range of checksumming (speculative congratulations to Ady). Looking at http://repo.or.cz/syslinux.git/blob/0d82b71304d596d80f3c4520f9dcf90048ca50b7:/lzo/prepcore.c it seems that this change in line 374 could yield correct checksums: unsigned int ptr; - for (ptr = 64; ptr < offset; ptr += 4) +

Could someone help me get the syntax for `genisoimage' and/or `xorriso' correct? Apparently it is not in many linux distros so below my little HOWTO shows how to compile it. ( which adds tons of crap that can go wrong) mkdir -p ISO_root/isolinux cp /usr/lib/syslinux/[i,m,v]* ISO_root/isolinux cat > ISO_root/isolinux/isolinux.cfg << EOF UI menu.c32 label isolinuxtests EOF # Most

Hi, is it possible to convert a bootable raw hdd image including grub (originally created with grml-debootstrap) to a bootable iso somehow? Cheers, adrelanos

Hi, I am trying to build a custom installer for a popular linux distro on MacOS. Here is how: makehybrid \ -o isos/muaaa.iso temp/ \ -eltorito-boot temp/isolinux/isolinux.bin \ -no-emul-boot \ -iso -joliet -boot-load-size 4 \ -default-volume-name "Custom Installer" \ -eltorito-platform temp/isolinux/boot.cat This happens when I boot up the new image:

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

Thomas, the "xorriso.exe" files that are available are not really "around". They are not easy
