ISO images under LInux

bookie · 08-09-2007, 05:04 AM

Hi again, trying to find programs that will create iso image files under Linux.

At the moment, I am thinking of Mandriva powerpack 2007.

Appreciate any help on this matter.

Try searching for mkisofs and growisofs, the latter is a text-based front end and there are also GUI-applications that use this software.

Thanks a lot Fluxien. I will do some research along the lines you have said.

Tack så mycket!

A gui would be k3b for example.

I was looking at the program list for K3b and found growisofs 7.0. I have looked at K3b but can't find any mention of creating iso images?

Is there a way to adapt K3b, so that I can create iso images?

Create a new project in the usual way. Click on "Burn". In the window that appears, select "Only create image".

Thanks for the info. I will be testing that in the near future.

Thanks again.

In K3b, if you want to burn an iso image to a CD or DVD:

Tools -> Burn CD Image
or
Tools -> Burn DVD ISO Image

Hi. K3b is very much like nero (in m$ windows) You can find it there, and it's free.

Caveat, you may need to read some text to find just how powerful it really is.

Thanks for the update. I am starting to realize how good k3b really is.

You could also take a look at Kiso for handling and converting various types of disk images into iso
