Well, I'd say that it seems *possible* -- but it reduces the set of i386 machines that will boot the resulting "truly portable" (sic) image to those with a BIOS that correctly handles multi-catalog El Torito booting. So it's not generally worth doing. In the Lubuntu world where we try to support older PCs, that would be a particularly bad trade-off. So it won't happen for official Ubuntu or Lubuntu releases. If Nio wants to spend the time to learn how, and do it, cool. Maybe all the i386 machines Nio can borrow have multi-catalog boot support. So for his particular circumstances, it might make sense. Open source means he is free to do the work :) Jonathan -- Lubuntu-users mailing list Lubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/lubuntu-users
