I think the write up on mkisofs covers doing this. The iso on the FreeBSD server is bootable. I have tested 4 or 5 of the popular Windows based CD burners and they all support iso images. It isn't obvious at times. I have been capturing images to cover burning an iso images as a web page for my FreeBSD project.
