I got + genisoimage -l -r -J -V KNOPPIX -b boot/isolinux/isolinux.bin -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table -c boot/isolinux/boot.cat -o /home/knoppix/knx/remastered.iso /home/knoppix/knx/master I: -input-charset not specified, using utf-8 (detected in locale settings) genisoimage: Uh oh, I cant find the boot image 'boot/isolinux/isolinux.bin' ! when I tried remastering with the instructions in the wiki, for Knoppix CD 7.2 . Would someone who knows what they are doing care to go through the files and get the 'genisoimage' right for the current syslinux/isolinux ? Thanks !

I: -input-charset not specified, using utf-8 (detected in locale settings) genisoimage: Uh oh, I cant find the boot image 'boot/isolinux/isolinux.bin' !

when I tried remastering with the instructions in the wiki, for Knoppix CD 7.2 . Would someone who knows what they are doing care to go through the files and get the 'genisoimage' right for the current syslinux/isolinux ? Thanks !

(Hope this is formatted reasonably)

From the Wiki:


Find the partition you will use to work on and change the variable "PFAD" within the scripts as you need. In this example it is called /media/sda1.

Have you done this within krhowto_1 to krhowto_4?

I was working on a USB key which had been installed from Knoppix CD. I changed PFAD to /home/knoppix in the scripts.
The problem is that the bootfile for the CD has changed. I can maybe figure what is going on by looking at the 'syslinux' web site, but maybe someone who already knows could get it right first time.

I think it may be a difference between running from USB key and CD. Let me try it again, from CD.

Yes, the script only works with the origin CD.
