Are there many iso's commonly available for which compression really 
would save much space?  Many of the cdrom images I have (Linux distros, 
Windows CDs, software installation CDs, etc.) would not compress more 
than a couple of percent at most - they are already in squashfs format, 
or contain .deb, .tar.bz, .cab, setup.exe, etc. files.

If you are using windows guests, an option is to use software from 
<http://www.daemon-tools.cc/> (they have a free-beer version) which lets 
you have a number of virtual CD drives, and mount various types of 
images (including .isz).

mvh.,

David
