mkisofs and cd boot disk


I have the old problem with having a system with no floppy that needs a bios update. The BIOS update needs DOS to run.

I have downloaded a dos boot disk from bootdisk.com but I am unsure howto make a bootable cd image with the DOS boot files and the BIOS update files with mkisofs.

Anyone help?
