Personally my standard incantations are embedded in two scripts: mkiso and mkcd, here: http://freshmeat.net/projects/mkcd/?topic_id=19%2C845 Typical usage is: mkiso -l cd-name-here directory mkcd directory.iso or outright: mkcd -l cd-name-here directory No thought involved. The mkcd bit needs to be done as root, but making an ISO image can e done as anyone.
