Thanks Michael!

That are exact the same options as for the FC2test2 iso as already
mentioned on the list.

Just one difference: FC1 was built with mkisofs1.14 and I was
building with mkisofs2.01a24, which is currently included in FC2test2

Anyway, I thought there might be a bug in mkisofs1.14, so I just made
another image with 1.14 and it also boots...

If anyone has further ideas what to try, please let me know, but for now
I'm really clueless on how to reproduce a non-bootable iso image (one
which completely fails to boot, not like the checksum error as I encountered
this morning)

Cheers,
Hannes.
