This option is relatively young in mkisofs. It was introduced after the
fork of genisoimage and after xorriso got defined its set of mkisofs
emulation options.

genisoimage from upstream cdrkit does not support EFI booting at all.
But Fedora's enhanced genisoimage got option -e for EFI boot images.
xorriso -as mkisofs supports -e too.

So for xorriso and Fedora's genisoimage one would replace the mkisofs
gesture

  -eltorito-platform 0xEF -eltorito-boot images/mindi-bootroot.img
  -no-emul-boot

by

  -e images/mindi-bootroot.img -no-emul-boot


Have a nice day :)

Thomas
