[Debburn-devel] genisoimage

[Thomas Schmitt]

Hi,

i now introduced -as mkisofs option -eltorito-id.

A new development snapshot is uploaded as
  http://www.gnu.org/software/xorriso/xorriso-1.2.7.tar.gz

The man page
  http://scdbackup.sourceforge.net/man_1_xorrisofs_devel.html
states:

   -eltorito-id text|56_hexdigits
          Define  the ID string of the boot catalog section where the boot
          image will be listed. If the value  consists  of  56  characters
          [0-9A-Fa-f]  then  it is converted into 28 bytes, else the first
          28 characters become the ID string.  The ID string of the  first
          boot  image becomes the overall catalog ID.  It is limited to 24
          characters. Other id_strings become section IDs.

So a run with Section Id Strings could be initiated by this more
conventional set of options. Like:

  xorriso -as mkisofs \
          -o result.iso \
          -b bios.img -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 \
          -boot-info-table -eltorito-id "FOR BIOS" \
          -eltorito-alt-boot \
          -e efi.img -no-emul-boot -eltorito-id "FOR EFI" \
          .


Have a nice day :)
