Hmm ... I've mounted it, modified it and eventually tried to run the bash
script to copy it over to a USB stick. It wasn't happy to run this time,
following my modifications:
# bash ./usb_inst.sh
Device [/dev/sdb] detected as [ USB DISK Pro ] is removable and
size=954MB
* Device [/dev/sdb] is not mounted
Device [/dev/sdc] detected as [ USB DISK Pro ] is removable and
size=1MB
* Device [/dev/sdc] is not mounted

Which package do I need to emerge for isohybrid?
