to this. I need to take the output buildiso standalone and put it on a USB. Has
anyone successfully done this recently? I tried feeding the iso into unetbootin
to create the usb. That resulted in 'no operating system found' when attempting
to boot from it. I am in the middle of trying it with livecd-iso-to-disk. Any
other ideas?
I haven't tried this specifically with a Cobbler-made ISO, but I have built other ISOs
myself and used the isohybrid tool to make them bootable from a USB stick.
NAME
isohybrid - Postprocess ISO images for hybrid mode
SYNOPSIS
isohybrid [OPTIONS] IMAGE
DESCRIPTION
Starting in version 3.72, ISOLINUX supports a "hybrid mode" which
can be booted from either CD-ROM or from a device
which BIOS considers a hard disk or ZIP disk, e.g. a USB key or similar.
To enable this mode, the .iso image needs to be postprecessed with this utility.
