Hi!  I' d like to create an ISO9660 filesystem...  To be
more specific, I want to create a CD-ROM image so I can 
write it out to a CD-ROM mastering system we have.

Could somebody explain what I need to do?  I imagine I
need to create a ~650MB file (no prob, empty 1.2GB), then
I need to create a filesystem on that image?
I know how to use the NetBSD "vnconfig" stuff to mount an
image of a floppy disk, but I don't know how to go about
disklabeling/newfs'ing/etc a 650MB image so that it
becomes an ISO9660 filesystem!  (Jordan?  You know all about
this don't you? :-) ) 
Basically I'm trying to make a CD-ROM that I can mount on
a DOS/Windows box *and* on my unix boxes.  If anyone has
software, disktab entries, or any suggestions, I'd really
appreciate it!

Thanks!

-Andrew
