Mathieu,

This is great.  Thank you so much.

This made me do a double-take, but looking at the code it's still 
s/xorriso/grub-mkrescue/ (which calls Xorriso, sure, but performs 
arcane magicks in between that lets us actually boot on real 
hardware).  Right?  Any cases where that changes?

Kind regards,

T G-R
