I apologize to all communities who hand out correct info. :))

Well, the excursion on CD-DA is off topic and i would
describe many aspects in different terms. Nice to see
that at least one person read man xorriso.

Whatever, no EFI stuff to see in this article.

This explains me how to create a Ec2 Linux server in Tokyo.
Grrr ...

I have ubuntu-14.04-desktop-amd64.iso here.
It's a ISOLINUX + GRUB2 isohybrid. Much like
debian-7.7.0-amd64-netinst.iso .

Of interest would be the production of
/boot/grub/efi.img before it gets packed up by
xorriso.


Have a nice day :)

Thomas
