The mkisofs tool is used for premastering iso9660 filesystems which are used on CD or DVD. The output of mkisofs can be used in two ways. One, a file can be created for later recording onto a blank CD media. Two, mkisofs and cdrecord can be chained together with a pipe. The output of mkisofs is then sent to a CDROM writer with a utility such as cdrtools

Ya'll we could use some example commands here for easy reference.
