Yes you can.. but can you burn it in such a way that you can later mount
it back into your system and read from it? I've seen cdwrite, that
should work for NetBSD and can burn a prepared iso-filesystem on a CD.
If one were to replace the iso filesystem with an ufs one, would it
just mount right away?
