sparc-boot Enable booting the SPARC platform. This disables HFS+, APM,
ARCS, and "boot as disk image" on the i386-pc target platform.
arcs-boot
Enable ARCS booting. This is typically for big-endian MIPS machines, and disables HFS+, APM, sparc64, and "boot as disk
image" on the i386-pc target platform. All options after a will be passed directly to xorriso's com‐ mand line when generating the image. SEE ALSO info grub
