 Hi,
 
 I think there is a fundamental difference between ordinary random-access
 filesystems and ISO9660.
 
 ISO9660 is not meant to be written to randomly. Instead, a filesystem image
 must be constructed in one go from existing files, which is what mkisofs
 (and lately makefs) does.
 
 As such, a tool like newfs_cd9660 really makes no sense IMHO.
 
 Best regards,
 
 ND
