Thanks... Seems I've been able to mount the image...

Uh.. I had another question though...

I'm going to modify the image but I'm not sure I can...

It's an ISO9660 image of a CD, and I want to leave it bootable, but I
want to add some things...  As it stands now there is no free space on
the file system...  Is there a way to grow an image or do I need to
create a whole new image file, copy the contents?  Or what?

Then I'm going to take the image file and burn a CD....  Shesh, this is
complicated... :)
