Convert a folder into .iso file format

We can use dd command to convert CD or DVD content into .iso file format, but this command cannot work if we wish to create .iso file for a folder, so we need the mkisofs command, which is not installed by default in Debian 5.0

mkisofs -J -o /target-folder/sep-cd1.iso /the-source-folder/

-J switch is to support long path & filename. (J=Joliet, not 8.3 format)
