You may want to google for joliet for info on way to make cds readable from
various OS's.

Mounting images has saved me lots of cd's, especially back when they were
more than 1$ per disc...

I just found a COOL trick for using ISO's.  You can mount them, without
ever even buring them, as long as you have loopback file support in you
kernel.

OK, now......  How do I make an ISO from a bunch of files?   How about
ripping one from a data CD?  So many cool things to play with....


mount -o loop /bkup/CD_Images/eL2.000R2.iso /distros/ezlinnux
