Ok, I have all the files and tools needed. Except one thing: I'm trying this on my Mac.

 

Now, I can patch the disc image, but when I burn it, it's not bootable... ;)

 

So.... Now I'm going to try installing Ubuntu Linux in Virtual PC 6 to see if I can patch it from within there... Funny, I don't even have a PC to run this on, I just want to see if it will work! :)

 

Any real Mac users able to hack the installer DVD and burn it to be bootable? I've searched the forums with little luck...

 

HELP!

Of course, as soon as I post a message about my problem, which I've been searching for the solution for on this forum for days, I FIND IT here:

Ugh!

 

The secret is to mount the image using

 

hdiutil mount -readwrite

 

Then you can modify the image CAREFULLY, and unmount it. Burn, and it works! :D
