Re: Mondo won't make bootable DVD (CentOS 7.2)

Hello Bruno,

The patch didn't fix our issue.

I join mondoarchive's log, you'll see that boot options are still missing
when growisofs is called.

Looking the 3665 changeset, I realize I didn't mention an potential
important information.

Our Centos install is not UEFI, it does boot on legacy mode only... and the
patch seems to refer to uefi.

Shall we switch to UEFI ?

Do you need a higher verbose log level ?

Best regards,

Michel.
