creating compressed iso image file

3

I want to create a compressed ISO image file and mount that file to one of the virtual drives and access the content (read-only) without worrying about manual decompression/extraction. For Windows and Linux (Ubuntu) OSes.

Which software tool would be better for this? Thanks.

If I remember correctly, there is an option to compress the isos in partimage http://www.partimage.org/Main_Page which is pre installed on most linux systems.

On Windows, UltraISO can create proprietary ISZ format images, and Daemon Tools can mount them. (related: How to mount a compressed ISO image?)
