If this is depending on the name "[BOOT]", there are
two ways to deal with special characters in file names,
if you need to specify them on the command line:

a) use escape sequences:
        -b \[BOOT\]/Bootable_HardDisk.img

b) use quoting:
        -b "[BOOT]/Bootable_HardDisk.img"

I used escape sequences and that works. The "no match" error is gone.

Also read "man mkisofs" about the boot-related
options, especially -b, where

        If  the  boot image is not an image of a floppy, you need to add
        one of the options: -hard-disk-boot or  -no-emul-boot.   If  the
        system should not boot off the emulated disk, use -no-boot.

is mentioned. Maybe consider using -G instead of -b?

I tried the -G option and removed the -hard-disk-boot option and now it created an iso without errors. The size is still 9MB though. I looked inside the original iso and the one generated by me but I really can't see any differences.
