iso: boot both firmwares, from a disc with a real hierarchy
The disc carried one file -- boot/schos.bin -- with 8.3 uppercase names, one El Torito entry, and no way to boot a UEFI machine. Now: /boot/schos.bin BIOS entry, unchanged: no-emulation, 1+STAGE2_SECTORS /boot/efiboot.img UEFI entry: a FAT image built with mtools /EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.EFI the loader, also visible as a file /bin /etc /usr ... the staged sysroot as an ordinary tree Rock Ridge and Joliet restore real names, permissions and symlinks; -cache-inodes matters more than it looks, because the sysroot is a toybox multicall binary with a couple of hundred hard links to it and without inode caching each link becomes its own copy. -isohybrid-gpt-basdat adds a GPT so the .iso can be dd'd to a stick and booted by UEFI. That is UEFI only and deliberately so: the BIOS isohybrid trick needs syslinux's isohdpfx.bin, and even with it this loader reads the kernel back over ATAPI, which a stick presented as a hard disk cannot serve. usbstick.img is what that is for. The FAT image carries the kernel as well as the loader, because BOOTX64.EFI opens \schos\kernel on the volume it was loaded from, and for a UEFI boot that is the FAT image rather than the ISO 9660 tree. Without it the loader halted with EFI_NOT_FOUND. Also fixes `make iso` and `make ramroot`, which were already broken: fs-ram.img was still built by the v1 mkfs while the kernel accepts only SchFS as root, so the ramdisk was a format it could not mount and it panicked with "schfs root: no SchFS volume on the root device". It is a mkschfs image now, which needed --exclude in mkschfs -- dropping the exclude list was not an option, because the ramdisk is linked into the kernel binary and what goes in it is a licensing question. RAMDISK_NINODES is gone with the v1 image: SchFS has no preallocated inode table. Verified: BIOS ISO boots to a shell and runs commands over serial (241 files in /bin, /etc/motd reads back). UEFI ISO boots to a prompt. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# NOT using -boot-info-table on purpose: it patches 56 bytes over offset 8 of

# the boot image, which is the middle of cdboot's code. stage2main.c finds

#
|
||||
# --- UEFI entry -------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
#
|
||||
# UEFI firmware does not run El Torito no-emulation code. It wants a FAT
|
||||
# filesystem containing EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.EFI, offered as a second boot entry.
|
||||
# So one is built with mtools and added with -eltorito-alt-boot. The same
|
||||
# loader is also copied into the ISO tree at /EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.EFI, because
|
||||
# some firmware looks there directly when booting from a USB stick.

# -isohybrid-gpt-basdat adds a GPT that marks the FAT image as a basic data
|

# partition, so writing this .iso to a stick with dd produces something UEFI

# will boot.
|
||||
#
|
||||
# That covers UEFI only, and deliberately. The classic BIOS isohybrid trick
|
||||
# needs syslinux's isohdpfx.bin, and even with it the BIOS path here would not
|
||||
# work: on a stick the firmware presents the medium as a hard disk, while
|
||||
# stage2main.c reads the kernel back over ATAPI. Booting BIOS off USB is what
|
||||
# build/usbstick.img is for.

# --- Rock Ridge and Joliet --------------------------------------------------
|
||||
#
|
||||
# Plain ISO 9660 gives 8.3 uppercase names with no permissions, so the sysroot
|
||||
# would arrive as /BIN/TOYBOX.;1 with every file marked the same. Rock Ridge
|
||||
# restores POSIX names, permissions and symlinks for Unix readers; Joliet does
|
||||
# long names for Windows. Both are additions to the same image -- a reader that
|
||||
# understands neither still sees a valid, if ugly, ISO 9660 disc.
|
||||
#
|
||||
# -cache-inodes matters more than it looks: the sysroot is a toybox multicall
|
||||
# binary with a couple of hundred hard links to it. Without inode caching each
|
||||
# link becomes its own copy and the disc grows by two orders of magnitude.
