That should work too, of course. xorriso allows to define severity threshholds for abort, for exit values with problematic runs which did not get aborted, and for verbosity. E.g.: xorriso -abort_on FAILURE \ -return_with WARNING 32 \ -report_about HINT \ -as mkisofs ... If we let the user interpret the complaints of xorriso then we should make it rather unverbous. Severity HINT is one notch lower than severity WARNING. No NOTE or UPDATE messages will appear. Using xorriso ... -as mkisofs ... rather than xorrisofs ... has several advantages. One can use its own richer option set before switching to mkisofs emulation, and one can easily use not-installed xorriso binaries, like /home/me/xorriso-0.x.y/xorriso/xorriso Have a nice day :) Thomas _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
