Therefore .cdr files ARE .iso files, so you don't need to do anything other than rename it.

MD5 (image.cdr) = 0f75c64de4b10fd581845aba99e1591d
MD5 (image.iso.cdr) = 0f75c64de4b10fd581845aba99e1591d

Is this INDEED an .iso file? So I did this and the resulting file was ‘filename.iso.cdr’ It’s like it converted it from a .cdr file to a .cdr file. Is this INDEED an .iso file?

I have burned dozens of ISOs from within Disk Utility over the years. Since (probably Panther) I've never bothered to change the extension, all I have to do is start with an ISO disk image and click "burn". Never had a problem booting the result on windoze or linux machine. It seems this hint is more about first creating and then converting ISO images into CD/DVD.
