If you want to make an _exact_ copy of the original CD, there is no
need to use mkisofs. If you want to copy the CD to a file on HDD
before writing the image,

# dd if=/dev/wcd0c of=/usr/win95iso/image
# cdrecord dev=0,3,0 -speed=4 -v -isosize /usr/win95iso/image

However, you should be able to just,

# cdrecord dev=0,3,0 -speed=4 -v -isosize /dev/wcd0c

But only do this with the original CD unmounted and do not otherwise
try to access it.
