That's fine.

How safe is this, and what benefit does it give on our current media?

This seems fine.

This didn't work as expected because of the -v later in the args.
When I put -quiet after -v I saw the intended effect, and I like it.
You might as well replace -v with -quiet in MKISOFS_FLAGS, and
possibly provide a method to allow people to easily append to
MKISOFS_FLAGS if they want to add -v to increase verbosity.


Cheers,
