"Make ISO file system"

Generates a file matching with ISO9660 specification and with various 
extensions, such as rock-ridge extensions to go beyond 9660 limitations 
(file names and folder nesting). I use mkisofs to create backups.

Such files can be mounted using the "loop device".

See this script.
