Regarding Creation of Bootable ISO of hard disk image having multiple partitions..
 

Hi,

If this is not the right place, please suggest me in the right direction...

I created dd image of my hard disk which consists of two partitions and it should be converted to bootable ISO so that, I can be able to boot Microsoft Virtual PC. For creating bootable ISO, I used the following in Linux OS:
mkisofs -b xy.img -hard-disk-boot -c boot.catalog -o xy_img.iso xy.img
But the command is not creating the bootable ISO image...It displays the error msg that the image contains multiple partitions.

As the man page of mkisofs says:
The hard disk image must begin with a master boot record that contains a single partition.

I tried in the following way
mkisofs -b BootWinXp.img -c boot.catalog -j -o xy_img.iso xy.img

I can boot in VMware/Virtaul PC as BootWinXp.img (It is created by using "create a MS-DOS Startup Disk" in WinXP ie, Format dialog) boot image as we are booting thru floppy...but I'm unable to boot my hard disk ie, xy.img is not at all calling.

I wish to boot with this iso image as we are booting the system...Please suggest me for the creation of bootable iso of hard disk image having multiple partitions...

Try giving this thread a try. I stumbled upon this a couple of months ago.
