Ok. I'll try. Is it the isohdppx or isohdpfx (or both) that is
relevant?
Meanwhile I have a hacked isohdppx.bin that prints:
G if GPT
M if MBR
<nothing> if no partition info
E if EBIOS
C if not EBIOS (from "CHS").
For isohdpfx.bin it will print:
E if EBIOS
C if not EBIOS (from "CHS").
Is that interesting for you/us?
Further how do I test that I haven't done anything really stupid?
I have debian install .isos e. g. debian-8.7.0-i386-CD-1.iso and
debian-8.7.0-i386-DVD-1.iso. I can boot these with qemu. But where
shall I insert this creation of mine.
