This size is created in the anaconda-runtime script mk-images.i386.  In
FC1, Red Hat started creating a boot.iso image that contained
everything:

    # now make a boot iso
    mkdir -p $TOPDESTPATH/images/isopath
    cp -rl $TOPDESTPATH/isolinux $TOPDESTPATH/images/isopath
    mkisofs -o $TOPDESTPATH/images/boot.iso -b isolinux/isolinux.bin -c
isolinux/boot.cat -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table -R -J
-V "$PRODUCT" -T $TOPDESTPATH/images/isopath
    rm -rf $TOPDESTPATH/images/isopath

That should work for RHL9 as well...
