Creating Your Own ISO Images

While on the topic of ISOs, it is good to know that you can create ISOs of your own. Of course, you're probably not going about creating your own Linux distros, but you might come up with a set of files that you need to repeatedly burn to disk now or in the future. To create your own ISO, follow the normal process for creating a data CD, but when the Write to Disc window (Figure 6-12) appears, select File image in the drop-down menu next to the words Write disc to. After that, click Write, which will bring up a new window asking for a filename for your new disk image. Give it a name, click OK, and in a very short time, you will have an ISO of your own creation.
