Ok, there is an iso9660 filesystem and a disk (commonly called .iso)  
image. you can use dd on a partition if you want to, and it'll make  
an image you can burn. to have a cd that can be mounted on windows,  
and more easily on linux, you want a hybrid cd, which is a hfs and  
iso9660 format. toast and mkisofs can so this, as well as hdiutil  
makehybrid. once you have a raw image, anything can burn it, nero,  
cdrecord, toast, etc.
