Comment 18 for bug 1298894

Hi,

> For reference, here is how the current xorriso is configured:

The current theory (obviously already known to Colin Watson)
is that the combination of -b and -e is to blame for the
reaction of the Mac.
As soon as more than one single -b (or -e) was given, it offers
the user an unusable choice menu of boot images.

-------------------------------------------------------------
Some upstream nitpicking:

> -checksum_algorithm_iso md5,sha1

This option is a surplus remnant of Jigdo production.
Being alone, it has no effect.

(One can record MD5 for image and each data file by option --md5.
 The checksums are stored in an array at the end of the ISO.
 Format described in
 http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~libburnia-team/libisofs/scdbackup/view/head:/doc/checksums.txt
)

> -isohybrid-apm-hfsplus

I already asked at debian-cd why this option is used although no
HFS+ image file is added as third boot image (as Fedora does).
It seems that Macs which want an Apple Partition Map also want HFS+.

(We will never find out if the option is not omitted until
 somebody reports that it really would be needed.)

Have a nice day :)
