Working with ISO disk images
copy a DVD or CD to iso file
dd if=/dev/dvd of=dvd.iso dd if=/dev/cdrom of=cd.iso
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
(Note that mplayer can play videos from .bin files directly if they store VCD images.)
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 new_disk_image.iso /media/loop
VCD images generate two .iso files
If you get two .iso files after running bchunk then this means you are probably working with a VCD image. To handle these you can try cdemu (a linux kernel module). I have not tried this.
