If you've ever wanted to create a linux CD or DVD with a kickstart file and you're on a Mac you've probably ran into this issue. You can use this method to add/edit/delete files from an ISO image (works as of OSX 10.6.4, despite using PPC binaries).

• Open Iso File Mac

I have downloaded OS X Mountain Lion ISO file (4.42GB) as my MacBook fails to boot and I want to do a fresh installation.

Install Custom Firmware on PSP. First of all you need to install custom firmware on your PSP: PSP. Another option for installing a program from an ISO file is to simply burn the file to a CD or DVD, or copy it to a USB drive and install it from there. This is a useful method if you wish to.

First, you need to grab a file:

You'll want to extract the tgz file and then you'll want to copy ./sw/bin/* to /usr/bin/:

• Open Terminal
  
• cd '/cdrtools/cdrtools-2.00.3 (PPC binaries)/sw/bin'
  
• sudo cp * /usr/bin
  

Create a folder for your new ISO compilation and then open the original ISO file by double clicking (it should mount as a disk image). Copy all of the contents on that disk image to the new folder and then add/edit/delete those files as needed. Once you've got the new 'image' to your liking, you'll want to go ahead and create the new ISO image.In order to keep your CD/DVD bootable you will need to figure out what the boot image is for your CD. On Linux CDs you will likely find this here: ./isolinux/isolinux.bin

• Open Terminal if not already
  
• cd /newcdimage/
  
• rm isolinux/boot.cat
  
• mkisofs -b isolinux/isolinux.bin -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -c isolinux/boot.cat -iso-level 2 -J -joliet-long -v -o /outputdir/NewISO.iso .

• If you get 'Missing pathspec' then you missed the . at the end of the command line
  

A helpful note:If you're creating a bootable ISO that you want to automatically start installing based on a kickstart file, you can edit ./isolinux/isolinux.cfg on your new CD image folder to have it do so. Something like this should work for centos:
Note that you may have to do a 'chmod +w isolinux.cfg' before editing
