Now that I've looked at the FreeDOS install disk, I realize that it's of 
course not as simple as this.

I thought the whole FreeDOS install process used an El Torito hard disk 
image for boot, that ran FreeDOS and contained all the files for setup 
or live, but I now realize that it's a bit more complex, as you also 
want people to be able to install/run live from the same CD without 
having to boot from it (which is a nice feature indeed). Also it seems 
that the target is indeed fixed to C:

This means that duplication of the ISO content wouldn't really work in 
this case.
