        I recall finding a mkisofs when researching this, but
requirements changed (hi Drew!), and I dropped the project before
researching it further.

DESCRIPTION
       mkisofs is effectively a pre-mastering program to generate
       the  iso9660  filesystem  - it takes a snapshot of a given
       directory tree, and generates a binary  image  which  will
       correspond  to  an  iso9660  filesystem  when written to a
       block device.

        [snip]

       mkisofs is available for anonymous ftp from tsx-11.mit.edu
       in   /pub/linux/packages/mkisofs  and  many  other  mirror
       sites.
