I have people complaining makeSUSEdvd does not work with Alpha2. I have not yet tested it and am downloading at this very moment. I asume it is because there is no /boot/loader/isolinux.bin , but instead a /boot/i386/loader/isolinux.bin (or so I have been told) Is this just a temporary thing, or will this be implemented in any future release? If so, will it be called `isolinux.bin` for the next foreseeable future? If so, I could detect it with a `find . isolinux.bin` and addept the script. If not, please elaborate as to where it is going. houghi -- Fourth Law of Thermodynamics: If the probability of success is not almost one, it is damn near zero. -- David Ellis

Yes, this has been changed with the latests alpha release and will most likely retained. But beware: $ find . -iname isolinux.bin ./i386/loader/isolinux.bin ./x86_64/loader/isolinux.bin $ Regards Christoph

OK. Thanks. If it were for only one version, I would not have changed the code. Now I am ready for 10.1. :-)
But beware:
$ find . -iname isolinux.bin ./i386/loader/isolinux.bin ./x86_64/loader/isolinux.bin $
Thanks for the warning. Did the following: BOOT_IMAGE=`find . -name isolinux.bin` BOOT_IMAGE=`dirname $BOOT_IMAGE|sed -e "s/\.\///g"` Then: mkisofs [...] -b "$BOOT_IMAGE/isolinux.bin" -c "$BOOT_IMAGE/boot.cat" [...] That should take care of: boot/i386/loader/isolinux.bin boot/x86_64/loader/isolinux.bin boot/loader/isolinux.bin whatever/somethingnew/isolinux.bin As long as isolinux.bin does not change in name, I should be safe. Tested on 10.0, 10.1A2 i386, 10.1A2 x86 64. Unfortunatly still no solution for PPC. :-( Files are uploaded to sourceforge.net. houghi -- The cow is nothing but a machine with makes grass fit for us people to eat. -- John McNulty
