Follow-up Comment #5, bug #32426 (project grub): Actually you didn't understand the install process. boot.img contains only reference to first sector of core.img. Rest of blocklist is in core.img. So embeddingless installs to read-only filesystems aren't supported. It's not a bug but simply something which isn't supported. ISO9660 reserves only 16K. Not enough for embedding. So the only way such install is supported is through grub-mkrescue and frankly I don't see the point of supporting any other way of iso9660 install. Feel free to supply the reason to change my opinion on the later. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?32426> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/
