Actually, it does generate a `filesystem' which you can then use the VN driver to mount as a virtual CD of sorts; I used this to inspect the 2.0.5R CDROM image before ever burning it to gold. Furthermore, if we ever got a read/write CD9660 filesystem working, one could even "hot-patch" the image generated, doctoring it up a bit before finally taking the image and whapping it onto CD. That would be neat. Any interest out there? Jordan
