The Howto was written under the assumption that you were packing and
burning your own ISO.  Try this.  Put the burned CD into your Windows PC
and open explorer on it.  It may have the file "whatever.img" on the
disc. I don't think EZ CD Creator can do what you want it to do.  I recall
trying something similar and ending up with a CD that had a .img file on
it.  Lemme know what you find.
