The package that they are using on hp-ux is creating a single file -
like an iso - but it is not an iso, because I can't mount it as such:
 mount -t iso9660 -o ro,loop=/dev/loop0 cd_image /mnt/iso

Then this single file is to be written to a cd in raw mode, that HP
claims will contain 470 MB of HP-UX os crap?
