As mentioned elsewhere in this thread, isohybrid did the trick.

What I don't know is whether the isohybridized version of the .iso
would still work on a CD.  If so, it might be effective just to 
distribute the hybridized version of the .iso.

If not, we should possibly distribute both.  An instruction to use 
isohybrid is unlikely to be useful to a complete beginner who does not 
yet have a Linux xytem available.

Of course, this was a pre-alpha.  Not expecting perfection and a 
vast infrastructure for all possibilities yet.
