I am going to run through a quick procedure to make the downloadable Cisco CUCM ISO images bootable. When you download them they are non-bootable for some reason. Use this at your own risk, and you must have a support contract to use any Cisco products. I am not liable for anything you do or mess up!

Cisco is nice enough to include the boot options and ISOLINUX files and configuration necessary to boot it. Fusionfall download free. They just don’t add the boot sector to the ISO file.
Prerequisites:
- A unix machine, macOS in this example, get to a terminal window
- Brew installed – download from http://brew.sh to get it. Package manager for macOS
- Download the ISO file you need from support.cisco.com (search for callmanager, in this example I am using 11.5)

There’s plenty of great posts out there on how to make bootable CUCM/Collaboration media with paid GUI software such as UltraISO or free command line utilities like cdrtools. Inspired by those bloggers, I wanted to share a method to create bootable media that features the best of both worlds: open source utilities with easy to use interfaces, all for the low low price of free.
Software you’ll need:
7-Zip / cdrtfe
First, find an existing bootable CUCM ISO (a Red Hat or CentOS live cd will do the trick as well) and open it in 7zip.
I finally found/interpreted enough information to make a video that shows all the 'ends and outs' of making the CUCM 8.6.ISO file bootable and installable in VmWare!:-) DISCLAIMER: FOR LAB USE ONLY!!! Please let me know if this was of use to you if you are/were a CCNA Voice candidate, because I'm one (voice candidate) myself!
Find the isolinux directory, highlight it, and click Extract. Choose where to save the files.
Next, take your non-bootable update dvd from Cisco and extract the contents with 7zip by right clicking the ISO -> 7-Zip -> Extract to….

Copy the isolinux directory you extracted earlier to the newly extracted Cisco ISO folder, overwriting any duplicate files.
Now open cdrtfe. Under the Data Disc tab click Options.
Under ISO image, select Use image, and browse to a location to store the finished ISO. Check Create image only, do not burn. Click Ok.
Next, click the File System button. Check the following options: Create boot disc, No disc emulation, and Create boot info table. Under the Boot image field, browse to the copied isolinux directory of your extracted ISO folder and select isolinux.bin. Click Ok.

In file explorer, browse to your extracted ISO folder and copy over all the files and folders into the cdrfte window.
