Removing Dummy Files?

I want to remove the dummy files from my ISOs, but I can't. And they bug me, because they take up a helluva lot of space. Do I have to convert it to someother format to extract the files and delete it or what? Thanks in advance.

If you are using windows xp, just compress them using NTFS compression, they will take up a lot less space!!

you will have to mount the image and then copy the files to a directory on your hard drive then delete the dummy file and then make another image with fastboot or reburn it with a selfboot program.

Should still work

Right click on your iso, go to properties, go to advanced, tick compress data to save disk space.

The above is assuming that your hard drive is formatted to NTFS :whistling :whistling
