Is there a simple prescription for splitting the big iso
across several cds?

'split -d -b 640m fat-image.iso' If you mean to preserve the ISO.  If
you want to make the ISO into several smaller ISOs, such that you can
still access the file, then probably simplest is just mounting the ISO
in the filesystem (I don't know how to do that, but would like to) and
then copying over <650MB worth of files to new ISOs.  I wouldn't think
there'd be a utility for this, because there are too many variables
that you have to decide.

You can mount an ISO image with:

mount -o loop -t is09660 image.iso /mountpoint

From there, you can treat it like any mounted (read-only) filesystem.
