I used the following script: #!/bin/bash # --------------------------------------------------- # Script to create bootable ISO in Linux # usage: make_iso.sh [ /tmp/slax.iso ] # author: Tomas M. <http://www.linux-live.org> # --------------------------------------------------- if [ "$1" = "--help" -o "$1" = "-h" ]; then echo "This script will create bootable ISO from files in curent directory." echo "Current directory must be writable." echo "example: $0 /mnt/hda5/slax.iso" exit fi CDLABEL="SLAX" ISONAME="$1" if [ "$ISONAME" = "" ]; then SUGGEST="../`basename \`pwd\``.iso" echo -ne "Target ISO file name [ Hit enter for $SUGGEST ]: " read ISONAME if [ "$ISONAME" = "" ]; then ISONAME="$SUGGEST"; fi fi # isolinux.bin is changed during the ISO creation, # so we need to restore it from backup. cp -f boot/isolinux.bi_ boot/isolinux.bin if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then echo "Can't recreate isolinux.bin, make sure your current directory is writable!" exit 1 fi mkisofs -o "$ISONAME" -v -J -R -D -A "$CDLABEL" -V "$CDLABEL" \ -no-emul-boot -boot-info-table -boot-load-size 4 \ -b boot/isolinux.bin -c boot/isolinux.boot .
