The attached program will make an ISO compatible CD Image on both Intel
Linux and Windows XP systems.
It works with the VMS Hobbyist CD, and the result is bootable. It works
with all the other data CD's that I tried as well.
The same exe works on Windows 2000, with one odd exception. It will
simply copy a CD image from any CD which has an ISO9660 file system on it,
but it fails to recognize a non-zero size for the \\.\CdRom0 device on these
systems when the Hobbist CD is installed.
Meanwhile, this raw data copy operation is the "right" thing for this problem.
The raw copy result provides a disk image that the simulator can access.
On many platforms, the simulator could access the device directly just as
this program does.
