From the manual of mkisofs :
-b boot_image
[...] The boot image must be exactly
the size of either a 1.2, 1.44, or a 2.88 meg
floppy, and mkisofs will use this size when creat­
ing the output iso9660 filesystem. [...]

I don't know if that's a limitation of mkisofs or of the El Torito/BIOS
specification, but you can ask the author of the part of this program,
Michael Fulbright (msf@redhat.com).

BTW : What means Llap ?
