I want to thank everyone who has supplied me with ways to create ISOs, both
from Windows, and Linux...I will now (soon), be able to put ISOs up on my
FTP.

Thanks,
Alan

true. however, consider that this is really:
1. find mkisofs source
2. download source
3. install source
4. insert cd
5. mount cd
6. run mkisofs
7. umount cd
8. eject cd

whereas mine is:
1. insert cd
2. dd
3. eject cd

but in all fairness mkisofs does things that dd can't do... hybrid cds come
to mind...
