Hi, i did not succeed to get my test computer (Asus A7V8X-X of 2004) to boot from an isohybrid image. I tried http://www.tux.org/pub/people/kent-robotti/looplinux/rip/RIPLinux-7.0-non-X.iso which is obviously isohybrid enabled. The system has a "Promise Ultra 133 TX2" IDE controller which supercedes the mainboard BIOS. To make the system react on the USB stick i set boot option

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, 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

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

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

I posted this on the bugzilla page but I figured that on the mailing list it would get more attention.

My interpretation of Didier's questions is less depth and more user-friendly practical commands for end-users. Our points of view
