Antman Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 I use XboxHDM a lot and normally I have to get into a dos prompt in order to create a linux bootable disc with a bat file that executes all the right commands. I was looking through the folder and noticed I can use Linux to make the ISO as well executing this file "make-iso-lin.sh". Well having played with OSX a lot I noticed it ends with ".sh" and was wondering if there is a way to make a ".sh" file that will execute all the right commands in OSX to make this bootable ISO for me to burn without leaving my OS and going to a windows machine? I am going to include the "make-iso-lin.sh" file with this and paste the commands in here. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks a lot guys.

EqUaTe Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 Yes, you'll need mkisofs, which I've attached, and you'll need to put it into a directory that is in your path - like /usr/bin Once you've put it in place (which will need to be done under sudo, or as root), you'll need to do the following: chown root:wheel mkisofs chmod a+x mkisofs You'll want to either do those in the place you put it, or give the full path to mkisofs That /should/ work, but may not. Try it and see FYI, the source for mkisofs is on http://www.andante.org/mkisofs.html - this is version 1.12b5 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/10526-linux-and-osx-xboxhdm-help/#findComment-66345 Share on other sites More sharing options...
