i would like to teach this stunt to libisofs, which already does isohybrid with MBR.
Some questions:
- Where can i download the resulting image for curious inspection ?
- What exactly are the embedded VFAT and HFS+ images ? Are they files to be put into the ISO filesystem ? (I assume so because partition 1 starts at 2K block 0 and has 234496 blocks. Partition 2 starts at 2K block 41 and has 284 blocks.) How did you get resp. produce them ?
- Which mkisofs options were used to produce the non-hybrid ISO image ?
- What version of SYSLINUX/ISOLINUX did you use for isohybridization ? Is the harmless code of 32 byte at MBR start a normal feature of isohybrid, meanwhile ? What options did you use with program isohybrid ? Did you have to configure it especially when building ISOLINUX ?
- If you used an own version of isohybrid: Can you show me the source code of that program ?
- If the MBR code is not from SYSLINUX: Is there a chance to get it under a license that allows redistribution under LGPL ?
- Do you know an URL of public specs for Apple partition maps ?
- libisofs offers an own stunt which could be combinable with yours. It is about having the MBR partitions starting at 32 kB rather than 0: http://libburnia-project.org/wiki/PartitionOffset Do you see any obstacles to extend this to your partition descriptions for Apple and in GPT ?
