Probably xorriso is not installed. Can you execute this from shell:
xorriso -version
and see among other lines
xorriso version : 0.5.6
(or a higher version number) ?
If not, then install packages "xorriso" and/or "libisoburn" of
your operating system. About Fedora i find in the web:
yum install xorriso
You may also install GNU xorriso from source:
http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/xorriso/xorriso-1.1.8.tar.gz
Needed is program "make", a C compiler and a binary linker.
tar xzf xorriso-1.1.8.tar.gz
cd xorriso-1.1.8
./configure && make
./xorriso/xorriso -version
If all went well, do as privileged user:
make install
or let grub-mkrescue use xorriso where it was built, by option
--xorriso=...absolute.path.../xorriso/xorriso
xorriso's job is to produce the ISO 9660 image with El-Torito record
for booting from CD, and with MBR for booting from hard-disk-like
devices.
Have a nice day :)
