right. It allows the "non-emulation" boot. See the following posting in the archive: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-grub/2003-04/msg00014.html As far as I know El Torito spcifies several modes: 1. Floppy emulation 2. Hard disk emulation 3. No emulation In floppy and hd emulation mode the real hardware gets re-mapped. In no emulation mode, the reader has to understand the ISO-9660 file system. hope that helps -- Bernhard Treutwein > -----Original Message----- > From: J.Bakshi [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Wednesday, November 21, 2007 5:28 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: waht is iso 9660 support in stage2 ? > > > Dear list, > > what is iso 9660 support in stage2 ? does it help GRUB to > boot from a CD ? thanks > > -- > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ > Joydeep Bakshi, Linux System Admin > Kolkatainfoservices Pvt Ltd, > 23A Royd Street, Kolkata 700016, India > Work Phone 91 033 40014784 > http://infoservices.in/ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ > > > > > _______________________________________________ Bug-grub mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-grub
