The deficiency of your run in https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2479825&p=14115075#post14115075 is that you did not give the options for creating EFI boot lures. Your VM states to have OVMF as firmware. > I have also tried this version : > xorriso \ > -outdev debian-live-11.5.0-amd64-xfce.iso \ > -volid d-live \ > -padding 0 \ > -map /home/ziomario/Scrivania/PassT-Cubic/ISO/iso_unpacked_and_modified / > \ > -chmod 0755 / -- \ > -boot_image isolinux dir=/isolinux \ > -boot_image isolinux > system_area=/home/ziomario/Scrivania/PassT-Cubic/ISO/isohdpfx.bin \ > -boot_image any next \ > -boot_image any efi_path=boot/grub/efi.img \ > -boot_image isolinux partition_entry=gpt_basdat > > this didn't even work : > ... > xorriso : FAILURE : Cannot find in ISO image: -boot_image ... > bin_path='/isolinux/isolinux.bin' It looks like the extracted file tree .../iso_unpacked_and_modified is not complete. There should be a file /home/ziomario/Scrivania/PassT-Cubic/ISO/iso_unpacked_and_modified/isolinux/isolinux.bin which is supposed to get into the emerging ISO as file /isolinux/isolinux.bin Elsewise this run would be sufficient for creating an EFI bootable ISO. It uses xorriso's native commands rather than the options of its mkisofs emulation. I just tested it with the extracted files of a Debian netinst ISO. Like my proposal at ubuntuforums.org this yields an ISO with EFI boot lures: $ xorriso -indev "$new_iso" -report_system_area plain -report_el_torito plain ...

As stated above, it lacks the options for creating EFI boot lures. But the tree "$new_files" contains the file /isolinux/isolinux.bin, so that this run does not fail when trying to find that file in the emerging ISO. My proposal at ubuntuforums.org is xorriso -as mkisofs \ -r -J --joliet-long \ -V 'Debian' \ -o "$new_iso" \ -isohybrid-mbr "$mbr_template" \ -partition_offset 16 \ -c isolinux/boot.cat \ -b isolinux/isolinux.bin \ -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table \ -eltorito-alt-boot \ -e boot/grub/efi.img \ -no-emul-boot -isohybrid-gpt-basdat -isohybrid-apm-hfsplus \ $new_files Have a nice day :) Thomas
