xorriso adds the traditional 300k of padding by default to all images.

For images which will never get to a CD it is safe to use -padding 0 .

Normally padding is not written as part of the ISO image but appended
after the image end. This is -padding mode "appended".

Emulation command -as "mkisofs" and command -jigdo cause padding to be

The same effect is achieved by -padding mode "included".

If the product of partition_sec_hd and partition_hd_cyl is too small to
