That's likely your problem. FYI here is the full set of stuff
livecd-creator uses:

args = ["/usr/bin/mkisofs",
"-J", "-r",
"-hide-rr-moved", "-hide-joliet-trans-tbl",
"-V", self.fslabel,
"-o", iso]
[ "-b", "isolinux/isolinux.bin",
"-c", "isolinux/boot.cat",
"-no-emul-boot", "-boot-info-table",
"-boot-load-size", "4" ]

Problem solved once O added -J -r.  I am using mkisofs 2.01.  The following no 
boots I hop to move on to solving my final problem, which is why I cannot make 
an updated initrd image boot that the only change was I copied the 
/lib/modules/ folder from the updated kernel.  The debugging should go much 
faster thanks to your help now that I can quickly use mkisofs to make bootable 
ISOs without going ttrough the time consuming livecd-creator process.


mkisofs -o image/sbc-dds-livecd-i386.iso \
 -J -r  \
 -V "sbc-dds-livecd-i386" \
 -b isolinux/isolinux.bin \
 -c isolinux/boot.cat \
 -no-emul-boot \
 -boot-load-size 4 \
 -boot-info-table \
 src/.

Thanks again for both of your help,

-Ed
