<h2 id="_description">DESCRIPTION</h2> |
|
<div class="sectionbody"> |
|
<div class="paragraph"><p>ISOLINUX is a boot loader for Linux/i386 that operates off ISO 9660/El |
|
Torito CD-ROMs in "no emulation" mode. This avoids the need to create |
|
an "emulation disk image" with limited space (for "floppy emulation") |
|
or compatibility problems (for "hard disk emulation".)</p></div> |
|
<div class="paragraph"><p>To create an image, create a directory called "isolinux/" (or, if you |
|
prefer, "boot/isolinux/") underneath the root directory of your ISO image |
|
master file tree. Copy isolinux.bin, a config file called |
|
"isolinux.cfg" (see <strong>syslinux.cfg</strong>(5) for details on the configuration file), |
|
and all necessary files (kernels, initrd, display files, etc.) into this |
|
directory, then use the above command to create your ISO image (add |
|
additional options as appropriate, such as -J or -R). If you named the |
|
directory boot/isolinux that should of course be<br /> |
|
-b boot/isolinux/isolinux.bin -c boot/isolinux/boot.cat.</p></div> |
|
</div> |
|
</div> |
|
<div class="sect1"> |
|
<h2 id="_config_file_directory">CONFIG FILE DIRECTORY</h2> |
|
<div class="sectionbody"> |
|
<div class="paragraph"><p>ISOLINUX will search for the config file directory in the order |
|
/boot/isolinux, /isolinux, /. The first directory that exists is |
|
used, even if it contains no files. Therefore, please make sure that |
|
these directories don’t exist if you don’t want ISOLINUX to use them.</p></div> |
|
</div> |
|
</div> |
|
<div class="sect1"> |
|
<h2 id="_hybrid_cd_rom_hard_disk_mode">HYBRID CD-ROM/HARD DISK MODE</h2> |
|
<div class="sectionbody"> |
|
<div class="paragraph"><p>Starting in version 3.72, ISOLINUX supports a "hybrid mode" which can |
|
be booted from either CD-ROM or from a device which BIOS considers a |
|
hard disk or ZIP disk, e.g. a USB key or similar.</p></div> |
|
<div class="paragraph"><p>To enable this mode, the .iso image should be postprocessed with the |
|
"isohybrid" script from the utils directory:</p></div> |
|
<div class="literalblock"> |
|
<div class="content"> |
|
<pre><code>isohybrid filename.iso</code></pre> |
|
</div></div> |
|
<div class="paragraph"><p>This script creates the necessary additional information to be able to |
|
boot in hybrid mode. It also pads out the image to an even multiple |
|
of 1 MB.</p></div> |
|
<div class="paragraph"><p>This image can then be copied using any raw disk writing tool (on Unix |
|
systems, typically "dd" or "cat") to a USB disk, or written to a |
|
CD-ROM using standard CD burning tools.</p></div> |
|
<div class="paragraph"><p>The ISO 9660 filesystem is encapsulated in a partition (which starts |
|
at offset zero, which may confuse some systems.) This makes it |
|
possible for the operating system, once booted, to use the remainder |
|
of the device for persistent storage by creating a second partition.</p></div> |
|
</div> |
|
</div> |
|
<div class="sect1"> |
|
<h2 id="_miscellaneous">MISCELLANEOUS</h2> |
|
<div class="sectionbody"> |
|
<div class="paragraph"><p>Make sure you have a recent enough version of mkisofs. I recommend |
|
mkisofs 1.13 (distributed with cdrecord 1.9), but 1.12 might work as |
|
well (not tested.)</p></div> |
|
<div class="paragraph"><p>ISOLINUX resolves pathnames the following way:</p></div> |
|
<div class="ulist"><ul> |
|
<li> |
|
<p> |
|
A pathname consists of names separated by slashes, Unix-style. |
|
</p> |
|
</li> |
|
<li> |
|
<p> |
|
A leading / means it searches from the root directory; otherwise the |
|
search is from the isolinux directory (think of this as the "current |
|
directory".) |
|
</p> |
|
</li> |
|
<li> |
|
<p> |
|
. and .. in pathname searches are not supported. |
|
</p> |
|
</li> |
|
<li> |
|
<p> |
|
The maximum length of any pathname is 255 characters. |
|
</p> |
|
</li> |
|
</ul></div> |
|
<div class="paragraph"><p>Note that ISOLINUX only uses the "plain" ISO 9660 filenames, i.e. it |
|
does not support Rock Ridge or Joliet filenames. It can still be used |
|
on a disk which uses Rock Ridge and/or Joliet extensions, of course. |
|
Under Linux, you can verify the plain filenames by mounting with the |
|
"-o norock,nojoliet" option to the mount command. Note, however, that |
|
ISOLINUX does support "long" (level 2) ISO 9660 plain filenames, so if |
|
compatibility with short-names-only operating systems like MS-DOS is |
|
not an issue, you can use the "-l" or "-iso-level 2" option to mkisofs |
|
to generate long (up to 31 characters) plain filenames.</p></div> |
|
<div class="paragraph"><p>ISOLINUX does not support discontiguous files, interleaved mode, or |
|
logical block and sector sizes other than 2048. This should normally |
|
not be a problem.</p></div> |
|
<div class="paragraph"><p>ISOLINUX is by default built in two versions, one version with extra |
|
debugging messages enabled. If you are having problems with ISOLINUX, |
|
I would greatly appreciate if you could try out the debugging version |
|
(isolinux-debug.bin) and let me know what it reports. The debugging |
|
version does not include hybrid mode support (see below.)</p></div> |
