[NBLUG/talk] bootable cd from iso image

I have an iso image for which I don't have access to the file system from
which it was built. I would like to make it bootable.
I have used it on machines with both floppy and cd drives - just use a
bootable floppy and then reference the cd for system load. I have a system
w/o floppy so now need to see if I can't make a bootable cd image with the
current .iso.
My hope was that I could combine a floppy boot.img with the current iso
somehow, but can't find a way that'll do the job.
I've been through HOWTOs, looked hard at mkisofs and cdrecord and "googled"
but to no avail.
Am I beating a dead horse, or is there a way to do this?
TIA for any pointers, ideas.
Regards, Glen
