Depends on the architecture, but for i386:

  mkisofs -r -V 'Ubuntu 4.10 i386 Bin-1' -o warty-install-i386.iso -cache-inodes -J -l -b isolinux/isolinux.bin -c isolinux/boot.cat -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table <directory>

Replace <directory> with wherever you've put the unpacked tree.
