The image isn't a real cd9660 iso, so programs with sanity checks
would understandably complain. I just use cdrecord, and pass the
filename in on the command line. It seems content.

As far as I can see it's the only image. I pulled it down and
tried it out, but was unable to get it to boot, either. I've
never actually used a cd install before, so I could be doing
something wrong. Although, the 1.6.1 image did work.

I'll take a look at the instructions, fiddle around, and see if I
can successfully create a bootable image here.

No trouble at all.
