"Profiles" directory was not extracted. Good idea! Comparing the files and folders of the original ISO against the extracted results I've noticed that two empty folders were just ignored when extracting: ISO file: folders: 17 files: 472 Output folder: folders: 17 files: 472 The missing fo...

You can also use an ISO read&write application like WinISO, UltraISO, etc. which will allow you to alter the ISO file and keep the boot sector part fine. Yes, but they aren't freeware solutions and would limit an automated way of creating these ISO's. I tried with LiveCD r24991 (patched, origin...
