Hi, Rui Ribeiro: > It is confirmed debian-live-6.0.1-i386-standard.iso is mountable on my > Macbook.
Oh well. It really seems to be about -partition_offset 16. Now the producers of isohybrid images have the choice between mountable on Apple systems or bootable from USB stick on a Kontron CG2100 "carrier grade server" (as reported in march 2011 on Syslinux mailing list). The standards violation is on the side of Apple. It is technically quite easy to make an image with partition offset mountable on Apple: Either by zeroizing the whole MBR, or by setting the start of the first partition to 0. The latter keeps it bootable from USB stick on most BIOSes. Have a nice day :) Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
