Re: Changing isolinux.cfg and splash.jpg for a live CD



I'm using a modified version of the mintConstructor tool of Linux Mint Debian Edition.

The ISO contains the following files:
/[BOOT]/Bootable_NoEmulation.img
/casper/filesystem.manifest
/casper/filesystem.manifest-desktop
/casper/filesystem.size
/casper/filesystem.squashfs
/casper/initrd.lz
/casper/vmlinux
/isolinux/boot.cat
/isolinux/isolinux.bin
/isolinux/isolinux.cfg/
/isolinux/memtest
/isolinux/splash.jpg
/isolinux/vesamenu.c32

All of the files in the casper directory are generated automatically during the remastering process.  The only files I deliberately changed were the /isolinux/isolinux.cfg and /isolinux/splash.jpg files.  The /isolinux/boot.cat file is automatically generated during the remastering process.  The isolinux.bin, memtest, and vesamenu.c32 files in the isolinux directory are unchanged during the remastering process.

I'm getting the impression that the isolinux.bin and/or vesamenu.c32 files also need to be changed.  Is this correct?  If so, how do these files need to be changed?
