+-hide hide_state iso_rr_path [***]
+     Prevent the names of the given files from showing up in the
+     directory trees of ISO 9660 and/or Joliet when the image gets
+     written.  The eventual data content of such hidden files will be
+     included in the resulting image, even if they do not show up in
+     any directory.  But you will need own means to find nameless data
+     in the image.
+     Possible values of hide_state are: "iso_rr" for hiding from ISO
+     9660 tree, "joliet" for Joliet tree, "on" for both trees. "off"
+     means visibility in both directory trees.
+     This command does not apply to the boot catalog.  Rather use:
+     -boot_image "any" "cat_hidden=on"
