A quick Google search found 'mkisofs' from http://www.cygwin.com/.
The installation process is a bit convoluted, but it gives a
good set of Unix-like tools for Windows.
On the other hand, any of the bundled freebie CD burning programs
that come with $60 CD-R drives these days (such as Roxio Easy CD
Creator and Nero Burning ROM) will easily create an .ISO file for you
from a list of files, using their nice Windows GUI instead of the
'mkisofs' command line.
X-CD-Roast is a great GUI frontend for mkisofs and the rest of cdrtools.
I just installed the latest versions of both, from source, in about 10
min. Not that mkisofs is hard to use to start with.
You would have to patch it somehow to do the block allocation that way,
though, I think.

I would like to set up an image of a CD in a hard disk file.
I understand that makeiso.exe does this in UNIX. Does
anyone have an executable version for Windows 98?
I was just told that the name of the program is "mkisofs"
in a Linux (or is that UNIX?). I want to be able to set
up the file structure with "dummy" files every 65536 blocks
so I can use the same files under both the iso file structure
and the RT-11 file structure.
