extracting bin files


Hi,

I am having .bin image file. I can explore it in windows using winiso. But, how can the same be done in linux?

Can I mount the bin file like the iso image files? Is there any utility to extract the files?

please let me know.

reg,
Shyam

when I use the command, it gives an error as below

mount: you must specify the filesystem type

if i use -t, what fs to specify?

reg,
Shyam
