 Yes, you need mkisofs from cdrtools 2.01 (but not newer!)
 
 Then in distrib/cdrom copy some conf and mk files, adjust them to your
 needs (mostly a simple s/5.0/$myversion/) and do something like:
 
 make MKISOFS=..../bin/mkisofs USETOOLS=no RELEASE=$myversion \
 	TARGET_CD_IMAGE=macppccd DISTRIBDIR=.... all
 
 where the value for DISTRIBDIR is the release dir output of a previous
 "build.sh release" run.
 
 Same for mac68k CD images, but with TARGET_CD_IMAGE=mac68kcd.
 
 It would be really great if someone could find time to add support for this
 HFS hybrid stuff to our makefs, so we could fully integrate it into the
 standard builds.
