Sorry, I wanted to fix my confusing and misleading typos. Problem solved once I added the mkisofs options you mentioned "-J -r". I am using mkisofs 2.01. The following now boots. 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/. I hope to move on to solving my final problem, which is why I cannot make an updated initrd image boot which 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. Thanks again for both of your help, -Ed -Ed -- livecd mailing list [email protected] https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/livecd
