It's a CHRP bootscript for PowerMacs. > If a file CD1/System/Library/CoreServices/BootX had existed on hard disk, > the pathspec "CD1" would have overwritten the previously inserted IsoNode > object which held the instruction to copy from "grub.chrp". > Afterwards, the content of file "BootX" would have been copied into > the ISO. But there is no file CD1/System/Library/CoreServices/BootX on the harddisk, the whole folder structure below /System is solely created for GRUB and only because I am mimicking what grub-mkrescue does: > http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/grub.git/tree/util/grub-mkrescue.c > If not prohibited for other reasons, it would be clearer and safer to copy > the desired files to their places underneath CD1 already on hard disk. > > cp /home/glaubitz/tmp/sid/CD1/../CD1/boot/grub/powerpc-ieee1275/grub.chrp \ > CD1/System/Library/CoreServices/BootX > > cp /home/glaubitz/tmp/sid/CD1/../CD1/boot/grub/powerpc.elf \ > CD1/System/Library/CoreServices/grub.elf I don't see how this is better over using the pathspecs. The original powerpc.elf is placed in the \\boot\grub subdirectory and with the pathspecs, I'm just linking the powerpc.elf into the correct places for IBM CHRP machines and PowerMacs, just like grub-mkrescue does it which produces a nice bootable image. I prefer using pathspecs over copy commands as this is also what is done for the other architectures. > xorriso -as mkisofs ...no.-graft-points.and.no.long.pathspecs...
