Hi Paul,
Thanks!
I am not entirely sure if the CD will boot correctly with EFI, I have
no idea, actually...
Without testing: no, it will not. There is only the 32bit iso, EFI
doesn't boot from 32bit.
Best regards, Jörn!
Hi Jörn,
Thanks
I was unaware about this, as the Download page indicates that the i386
images will work for any computer if I am unsure.
Do we need to include an efi boot portion to our isolinux in order to
make it boot also, or does it only have to have 64bit packages?
As, I said, I know very little about EFI.. especially standard EFI. I
do know that Apple EFI is extremely LAME :)
You need 2-3 things:
#1 an EFI folder, you can take it from the official isos
#2 the iso needs to be build like
genisoimage -D -r -V 'ToriOS $arch' -cache-inodes -J -l -b
isolinux/isolinux.bin -c isolinux/boot.cat -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4
-boot-info-table -o ../../torios-$arch.iso -eltorito-alt-boot -e
boot/grub/efi.img -no-emul-boot .
#3 (optional) the package linux-signed-generic needs to be installed for
SecureBoot. If SecureBoot is deactivated, the package is not needed for EFI
itself.
