El Torito boot (alternate boot)
Hola, mkisofs has the following option (from the man page): -eltorito-alt-boot Start with a new set of "El Torito" boot parame ters. This allows to have more than one El Torito boot on a CD. A maximum of 63 El Torito boot entries may be put on a single CD. Theoretically, this means I can boot more than one image from a CD. In reality, my question would be: How do you chose ? There is no - boot menu with options. Any experience with it ? --Ariel -- Ariel Biener e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP(6.5.8) public key http://www.tau.ac.il/~ariel/pgp.html To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi I think that Slackware had the same problem, and they used isolinux to solve it (in slackware8 they let the users to choose which kernel they want to boot, 2.4, 2.2 etc) See http://ftp1.sourceforge.net/pub/slackware/slackware-8.0/isolinux/ Sagi - Original Message - From: "Ariel Biener" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: "Israeli Linux Mailing List" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, July 08, 2001 1:24 PM Subject: El Torito boot (alternate boot) Hola, mkisofs has the following option (from the man page): -eltorito-alt-boot Start with a new set of "El Torito" boot parame ters.
