Make .iso files in Linux

It is very convenient to creat .iso files in linux OS. Also it is very easy to burn iso files to CD/DVDs.

One only needs to group all data intended for a single iso file in to a DIRECTORY and then issue the following command in the terminal:

$: mkisofs -V LABEL -r DIRECTORY | gzip > XXXXX.iso

Where DIRECTORY and XXXXX should be replaced accordingly.
