I'm trying to make a Gentoo CD (who on here isn't?) for an IBM PPC64 |
2 |
machine. The official Gentoo Minimal CD boots just fine on my machine |
3 |
(RS/6000), but my own custom ISO does not. My disc is not being detected as |
4 |
a bootable device, and oh how I wish I knew why. |
5 |
|
6 |
My only guess is that it has something to do with mkisofs/cdrtools. I have |
7 |
version 2.01.01_alpha10 installed. I realize that 2.01.01_alpha25 is |
8 |
available, but I can't get that version even to create an ISO, let alone a |
9 |
bootable one. |

For reference's sake, here is the exact mkisofs command as it is getting run |
12 |
by catalyst on my system: |
13 |
|
14 |
mkisofs -J -r -l -chrp-boot -netatalk -hfs -probe -map |
15 |
/var/tmp/catalyst/builds/default/livecd-stage2-ppc64-5.0/boot/map.hfs -part |
16 |
-no-desktop -hfs-volid "catalyst 2007.0" -hfs-bless |
17 |
/var/tmp/catalyst/builds/default/livecd-stage2-ppc64-5.0/boot -V "catalyst |
18 |
2007.0" -o /root/MyDisc_PPC64.iso /var/tmp/catalyst/builds/default/livecd- |
19 |
stage2-ppc64-5.0/ |
20 |
|

What version of cdrtools was used to make Gentoo's official 2007.0 build? |
