Hi,

this is basically a forward of http://bugs.debian.org/609688 where a 
user reported the following:

---snip---
isohybrid fails to set the MBR ID when invoked with -id, whereas 
isohybrid.pl
works as expected. Attached is a small program to read the id from a given
file.

$ python getid.py some.iso
0x9785721e
$ isohybrid -id 0x12345678 some.iso
$ python getid.py some.iso
0x9785721e
$ isohybrid.pl -id 0x12345678 some.iso
$ python getid.py some.iso
0x12345678
---snap---

his getid.py is attached to this mail for your convenience, too.

Regards,
Daniel
