Hmmm. Okay, nutty idea. If an ISO image contains the entire CDROM
filesystem, shouldn't there be a way (perhaps not written yet) to mount
the ISO image file as its own filesystem? Sort of a file that is a
read-only file system? That way if one does not have a CDROM burner,
one could still access the files in the image. I googled a bit and
checked freshmeat, but I came up empty.
I don't suppose
mount -t iso9600 /home/some_iso_image.iso /mnt
would work...
