CD image with .mds/.mdf extention

Nazar_d8 · 09-14-2004, 06:22 PM

I also have the same problem. I have dozens of mds/mdf images and I really would like to use them, either by mounting or burning.I tried converting MagicIso with Wine but no result there either. My windows broke(dont have time to fix it) and untill now I've been using Linux ONLY (very proudly) but this mds/mdf thing will probably take me back to win.

any help would be appreciated, thanks

I did have trouble running MagicISO with wine, but UltraISO installed fine and had me converting all my mdf's in no time

Thanks for your reply, but I got very unpatient and reinstalled my WIn. So now I got acces to Alcohol and burned all my images.

Still hope they would make an alcohol like app for linux (wine-less)

Here you go, scroll down to see the solution:

To cut a long story short:
(0. install bin2iso)
1. create a .cue file:

Code:

 $ bin2iso myfile.cue -c myfile.mdf

2. use the .cue to create an .iso:

Code:

 $ bin2iso myfile.cue
