The arguments "-as" and "mkisofs" get generated by grub-mkrescue.
You do not have to give them to grub-mkrescue. Actually when xorriso
is already in mkisofs emulation mode, it does not recognize "-as".

The option "-o" is interpreted by both, grub-mkrescue and xorriso.
It needs the path for the emerging ISO image as next argument.
You squeezed "mkisofs -as -j -iso-level 3" inbetween. This is wrong.

There is no option "-j" in xorriso's mkisofs emulation.
I assume you meant "-J" in order to produce Joliet information.

Try this

  grub-mkrescue -o "${WORK}"/live-cd.iso "${CD}" -J -iso-level 3

or if you have the intermediate grub-mkrescue version:

  grub-mkrescue -o "${WORK}"/live-cd.iso "${CD}" -- -J -iso-level 3

(The second variant will complain about unknown command -J if
 you have the old or the new version of grub-mkrescue.)


Have a nice day :)
