Hi,
I've been trying to setup a dual livecd. However I am getting an
error with parsing the isolinux.cfg. I am using 3.84.
the relevant section of the isolinux.cfg is as follows
label LiveCD1
kernel vmlinuz1
append livecd=livecd1 initrd=initrd1.gz root=/dev/rd/3 acpi=on
splash=silent vga=788 keyb=us fstab=rw,noauto
label LiveCD2
kernel vmlinuz2
append livecd=livecd2 initrd=initrd2.gz root=/dev/rd/3 acpi=on
splash=silent vga=788 keyb=us fstab=rw,noauto
When written this way, both selections end up opening the same
squashfs image (livecd1).
If I write it the other way around:
label LiveCD2
kernel vmlinuz2
append livecd=livecd2 initrd=initrd2.gz root=/dev/rd/3 acpi=on
splash=silent vga=788 keyb=us fstab=rw,noauto
label LiveCD1
kernel vmlinuz1
append livecd=livecd1 initrd=initrd1.gz root=/dev/rd/3 acpi=on
splash=silent vga=788 keyb=us fstab=rw,noauto
then both selections end up opening the livecd2 image.
The proper append values seem to be parsed if I offer different options.
Not sure where to look on this one.
thanks,
Cyrille
