Well, I actually did that but it's not a viable option because the end 
OS is windows(not to mention when I made the isos to start in windows 
with Roxio-the only software I have access to it did something funny and 
linux will only mount 1 of the 7 without error), I'm just using my linux 
box because I have more software options.

In the end I think I'm going to option 2 if I can ever get the files 
extracted from the isos. I'll see if I can post my mount error when I 
get home.
Something about a loop error if I don't specify the file system and 
invalid file system when I do specify iso9660, I think Roxio made a 
funny version of iso9660, because some windows tools can still read it.

Oh well - Alex
