Hi,


It looked somewhat like from a cdrtools advertiser troll.
So i reworded it to get into contact. Sorry for that misperception.
I apologise for that, it wasn't my intention at all. :-|

We should negotiate an appropriate final text if you deem it necessary.
I think the current wording is ok. I don't see any need to change it. It's definitely better than the original one. :-)

If -boot-load-size is not specified, then xorriso assumes it to be four
512-byte sectors, and not the whole boot file as mkisofs assumes.
I am meanwhile investigating the problem. Obviously none of the
xorriso users ever used -no-emul-boot without -boot-load-size.
Actually i have never seen such an ISO with values other than 4.
Do you know an example for download ?
I was actually going to do that for my own bootloader, where the BIOS is supposed to load the entire boot file into memory. mkisofs and genisoimage support that without any issues, however xorriso has the value 4 as the default.
