- Basically, proceed as shown for netboot above, but set LBX2GO_IMAGETYPE to iso, iso-hybrid, or hdd.
+ Basically, proceed as shown for netboot above, but set LBX2GO_IMAGETYPE to iso or iso-hybrid (recommended).
  
- Location and name of the output files will vary slightly, so skip the "lb clean" step until you've located them.
+ if you actually intend to write the image to CD/DVD or USB media, the only file you need is located at ./original-x2go-tce-live-image-i386.hybrid.iso after using the above script.
  
- Iso-Hybrid images can be dd'ed directly to a USB stick.
+ When using iso-hybrid, this file can be dd'ed straight to USB media, no need to unpack, format, fiddle with a boot loader, etc.
+ 
+ Also, when using iso-hybrid and USB media, there are a few "cheats" to reclaim unused space on the USB media, and to turn it into a solution that allows you to run X2GoClient in portable mode on Windows, and boot
it as X2Go-TCE, with a shared configuration file. 
+ 
+ FIXME Document how to add second partition to USB media after dd'ing the iso-hybrid image, and how to add X2GoClient-Portable to it.

+ FIXME This page is missing a section/subpage that explains how to create images for local storage.
+ 
+ Basically, proceed as shown for netboot above, but set LBX2GO_IMAGETYPE to iso or iso-hybrid (recommended). Do not select hdd or tar - even though it is supposed to becoma a local storage installation.
+ 
+   - On your local media, create the following folders: ''/boot/X2Go-live1'', ''/boot/X2Go-live2'', ''/boot/X2Go-live-download''.
+   - Copy ''./x2go-tce-vmlinuz'', ''./x2go-tce-initrd.img'', and ''./x2go-tce-squashfs-only.iso'' to ''/boot/X2Go-live1'' and ''/boot/X2Go-live2''.
+   - Create a folder ''/boot/grub'' and install grub-legacy into it (assuming an ext* file system) OR 
+   - install GRLDR and GRLDR.mbr into C:\ (assuming an NTFS file system) AND make the appropriate changes to
activate it (edit boot.ini on XP systems, use bcdedit.exe on Vista and newer) OR
+   - install syslinux (should work with FAT* as well as ext*)
+   - 
  
- HDD images mean you might have to jiggle with syslinux or grub.
  
  FIXME This page is missing a section/subpage that explains how the autoupdate process works with NTFS-formatted local storage (requires using ''findiso=/path/to/iso/name.iso'' and, for the actual autoupdating, ''toram'', ''updateurl'', and ''ntfs-uuid'')
