writing grml-full-2026.04-amd64.iso via dd to USB stick
$ fdisk -l grml-full-2026.04-amd64.iso

boots fine into linux with UEFI mode

There is no partition table entry in the MBR.
So booting must quite surely have taken its way via El Torito, because
there is no other hint about the position of the EFI partition's
position and size.

our (grml) xorriso command line is (stripped for build paths and taken from a daily build):

xorriso -as mkisofs \
    -V 'grml-full-amd64 d20260527b718' \
    -publisher 'grml-live | grml.org' \
    -l \
    -r \
    -J \
    -b boot/grub/i386-pc/eltorito.img \
    -no-emul-boot \
    -boot-load-size 4 \
    -boot-info-table \
    --grub2-boot-info \
--grub2-mbr <output_dir>/grml_chroot/usr/lib/grub/i386-pc/boot_hybrid.img \
    -eltorito-alt-boot \
    -e boot/efi.img \
    -no-emul-boot \
    -isohybrid-gpt-basdat \
    -o <output_dir>/grml_isos/grml-full-daily20260527build718testing-amd64.iso

Maybe this is suboptimal. Any feedback appreciated!

Best,
Chris
