I do it almost daily with Toast 4.1.2 and have a couple of additions:

If you want the CD to load with it's window open on the Desktop,
have it open Now.
Drag the icon for the temp partition that you just made onto the
Toast Window,
the window will close,
if you want the CD to load with it's window open on the Desktop,
Open it Now.
Click the "Data..." button and choose 'Optimize on the fly',
this assures that the disc will be HFS and not HFS+
which IIRC System 7x can't read. Assuming that matters to you.
Drag whatever PC-specific stuff you've got
(executables and READMEs with CRLFs for example) onto the Toast window

Or drag them from the temp partition onto the Toast window.
N.B. If you want to have the Mac window open in Icon view on the CD,
never let Toast 'see' it in List view. That is, if you go to the Finder
and change the view of the temp partition to get to files that aren't
visible in Icon view, drag them onto the Toast window while staying in
the Finder, then switch back to Icon view before leaving Finder and
activating Toast.
You can mess with the layout of the files on the CD to improve performance...
Click 'ISO...' and the 'Layout' tab. Files at the top of the list are
nearest the center of the disc and supposedly quicker to access. (I
think I've got that right, seems to work for me anyway)
