how to convert a cdrom made with linux clonecd to ISO9660 format ?

Hello,

I used linux clonecd to copy a cdrom, but I would like to convert it to more standard iso9660 format.

How could we make it?
I have the bin and toc files as source from clonecd linux.

... but clonecd images are usually a triplet of .ccd .img and .sub

You can convert the toc to a cue file with

toc2cue image.toc image.cue

and burn the image with

cdrdao image.cue

or

convert it to an iso with bchunk

I suspect that the usual burners like K3B will actually handle bin/toc or bin/cue files directly.

for future reference - use a more standard linux cd ripping tool.

even the quick and dirty

dd if=/dev/cdrom0 of=image.iso

works better than it aught to anyway.

thank you!!

nota. I use this clonecd for linux /usr/bin/clonecd that I found

cat /usr/bin/clonecd

Code:

#!/bin/sh
if [ "$1" == "--help" ] ; then 
	cat /etc/fstab | grep cdrom 
	exit
	exit 0
fi
readom dev=$1 -clone -nocorr f="$2"

cdclone is a script which calls readom

if you leave off the -clone option it will read raw images suitable for direct burning.

readom dev=cdrom f=image.iso

burn with

readom -w dev=cdrom f=image.iso

presumably this will also work with image.bin

readom -w -clone dev=cdrom f=image.bin

never tried it.

note: "cdrom" from dev= needs to be defined in /etc/wodim.conf

wodim has more useful burning options, particularly for data/audio disks.
genisofs is also very useful - thus, to copy a mixed audio/data disk, rip the audio normally, then copy the files. Use wodim to tie them back together when you burn.

Lot of knowledge, you are the king with cd burning, man ! thank you

It's an illusion

the best skill you can pick up is reading the man pages ... all the above is from

man readom

gnu/linux has a pretty steep learning curve - the upside is that you are able to learn a lot

The other guys always have some sort of cutout where you are not provided with what you need to do certain things ... that makes the other guys learning curves impossibly steep: a fact they try to cover over.

You see what happens if you show curiosity and a willingness to learn? People are willing to tell you stuff in more detail.

I remember you from your earlier posts - you've come a long way

Onced cloned with readmon, would you know if K3B can burn it and if the mount can mount it ?

Are we talking about an audio CD ? We probably are, because the are the ones that are usually cloned, in which case it's senseless to convert it to iso9660, because audio CDs do NOT have a filesystem, they're just raw data. For audio CD cloning .bin and .cue are a standard, pretty much every program generates these, and they can be burned by cdrdao.

but maybe somehow one can convert it, from bin to iso9660, then use cdrecord to burn this made iso?
