geteltorito - an El Torito boot image extractor

geteltorito < image | device > [ -o outputfile ]

geteltorito is a Perl script which extracts the initial/default

El Torito boot image from a CD if one exists. It will not extract any of other boot images that are allowed by the El Torito standard.

The boot image file is written to

stdout and all other information (e.g., image type and size) is written to

R stderr . To write the image to a file instead of

R stdout , specify the output filename using

-o filename .

R genisoimage (1),

R isoinfo (1).
