High all, In WinXP, I have created file "image.iso" using mkisofs, but unable to postprocess with the "isohybrid". I worked as follows: cd F:\syslinux-4.05\utils F:\syslinux-4.05\utils> isohybrid F:\image.iso and received >'isohybrid' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. What next? Thanks in advance. Prof S W Damle
isohybrid is a linux binary. You can try the perl version of isohybrid in Windows: perl isohybrid.in Gert Hulselmans 2012/3/22 Prof S W Damle <swdamle at bsnl.in>:> High all, > > In WinXP, I have created file "image.iso" using mkisofs, but unable to > postprocess with the "isohybrid". > I worked as follows: > > cd F:\syslinux-4.05\utils > > F:\syslinux-4.05\utils> isohybrid F:\image.iso > > and received >'isohybrid' is not recognized as an internal or external > command, > operable program or batch file. > > What next? > > Thanks in advance. > > Prof S W Damle > _______________________________________________ > Syslinux mailing list > Submissions to Syslinux at zytor.com > Unsubscribe or set options at: > http://www.zytor.com/mailman/listinfo/syslinux > Please do not send private replies to mailing list traffic. >
Hello 'Bernd Blaauw', Gert Hulselmans Downloaded "isohybrid.exe" from the link provided by you and I am glad to inform you that it is working fine off USB stick. How ever I am unable to boot Local Hard Disk that is configured as follows: label localboot menu default menu label ^0. Boot local hard disk kernel chain.c32 append hd0 0 label localboot menu default menu label ^1. Boot WinXP/Win98/Win2000 kernel chain.c32 append hd0 1 Your experts comments and further guidance please. Thanks again. With Regards. Prof S W Damle

Boot WinXP/Win98/Win2000 > ?kernel chain.c32 > ?append hd0 1You have 2 times the same label name. Does it give an error message? Is this a part of a Syslinux config file inside the ISOhybrid image? Are you booting from an USB stick? If you are, then if your USB stick is seen like a hard disk, it will be hd0. Your internal disk will then normally be hd1. The following syntax is more specific (less guessing for Syslinux): label localboot menu default menu label ^1. Boot WinXP/Win98/Win2000 com32 chain.c32 append hd1,1 - Gert
