When bad things happen to good Mac's [OT]

[Mark Guertin]

mkisofs is only for creating ISO media (cdrom media) and should never  
be used on hard disks or hard disk images.

Are you sure you recreated the partitions exactly as you had them?  I  
suspect there is a patch partition missing if you still cannot boot,  
and that drive setup.  Is there any unpartitioned space on the  
drive?  Drive setup can most certainly use unpartitioned space to  
create new partitions, have done it many many times.
