Make ISO bootable #6

Closed ryanwalder closed 8 years ago

ryanwalder commented 9 years ago

Use isohybrid to make the outputted iso bootable so you can slap it on a USB stick and use it.

ryanwalder commented 9 years ago

IMO this actually makes the resulting ISO more inline with the Ubuntu ISO that gets downloaded as the downloaded ISO is bootable however the outputted ISO is not (without this patch). I'm happy to make it optional if you prefer.

netson commented 9 years ago

Makes sense, but I would prefer it to be optional so it can be turned off for those who don't need/want it. And if you could add the isohybrid program to the dependencies as well, that'd be great. I believe it is installed by default on Ubuntu, but for those using this on a different OS it's an additional fail-safe.

Thanks again for contributing!! :+1:

Sorry been super busy this month, will sort this at the weekend!

ryanwalder commented 8 years ago

Ok, made the "make bootable" an option and added dependency handling to make sure isolinux is there (install syslinux). Sorry it took so long, life gets busy sometimes!
