The support for other boot image types is sparse.

An MBR is generated together with the El Torito boot record if the boot image
bears the isohybrid signature of ISOLINUX 3.72 or later. It will occupy the
first 512 bytes of the emerging ISO image and enable booting from media which
appear as hard disk rather than as CDROM. An MBR does not hamper CDROM booting.
The MBR of a follow-up session can get in effect only on overwriteable media.

Bootspec "isohybrid=off" disables MBR generation, "isohybrid=on" prevents the
