Mkisofs is availabla as part of the cygwin tools, but IIUC, will not
do what you need. It simply builds an ISO filesystem of a list of files

Now that I think about it, I remember posting in a
thread here
several months ago in a conversation with Mr. Fine that
we'd determined that right-clicking on a file in Nero (?)
gave you an option to set a file priority low-medium-high
which in fact did place the files nearer to the start of
the disc.
Jerome Fine replies:
Thank you for the reminder. However, since there are 20 RT-11
partitions for a CD and each partition requires its own RT-11
directory at the very beginning (every 65536 blocks or 33,554,432
bytes), the correct order is not that simple.
Thus far, I have received an address which should provide the
file structure of the ISO-9660 CD media.
I was hoping that a Windows 98 version of mkiosofs was available
which allows a user to copy files to a hard disk file in preparation
to burn that CD image. Evidentially a TOC (Table of Contents)
is set up for the file structure when the files are burn to the CD
media.
Sincerely yours,
Jerome Fine
