Iso

Working with ISO disk images

create DVD iso image from files

In this example, I make a DVD image from my SVN 'trunk' directory.

mkisofs -r -J -allow-multidot -root=/trunk/ /home/noah/trunk/ > disk_image.iso

mount CD or DVD iso disk image

mkdir /media/loop
mount -o loop -t iso9660 disk_image.iso /media/loop

Burn DVD iso image to DVD

This assumes that /dev/dvd is a link to your DVD device.

growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/dvd=disk_image.iso

How to mount .bin and .cue files on Linux

First install bchunk:

sudo apt-get install bchunk

Run bchunk on the .bin and .cue files to convert to .iso:

bchunk disk_image.bin disk_image.cue new_disk_image

Then mount the .iso file:

mkdir /media/loop
mount -o loop -t iso9660 disk_image.iso /media/loop
