I understood that from the beginning.
Actually, my last post was about how to do all of this from within Konqueror, which is a gui file manager. My point is that, for me at least, making an iso image is easiest if you think about it in terms of what is actually happening.

If anybody does build a gui, I hope they avoid the following...

ISOMagic FAQ

Q:What is the size limit of the ISO file ISOMagic can process?

A:If you register, it is 2GB. If you haven't registered, it is 300MB.

Anybody have any blank 2GB discs???

Whoa, dude. The first part contains a quote from me, so I assume you're including me in this. I was talking about a different way to approach the problem. I tried to show a way to get as close as you can right now to using your own method, using an existing gui. It was never my intent to insult you. If I did, then I apologize.

And with that, I think it's time for me to abandon this thread.

Me too.

I was just fed up with all the posts. It was a simple question, and got carried way past where it should have. I was NOT sigling out anybody, or I would have tag quoted. It was the attitudes of many in general.

Question asked, question answered.

Hi, have you tried kiso from http://kiso.sourceforge.net/ it allows you to create, edit and extract iso files.

You can mount the iso into a directory.

w00t ? I'm sorry but I didn't got your point for bringing this fairly old post up !
