Is there any software like Alcohol 50% on Linux?

powadha · 11-09-2004, 04:19 AM

Kiso is an option as well....

Kiso website

Still early development though.
The mentioned Mount Iso Image script does a great job though. Easy to work with and very easy to setup.

ok i have figured out how to mount the .cue portion of the bin/cue combo (fyi this is created in windows via Nero burning rom software. it is the CD/DVD burning tool that competes with EZ CDcreator) the .cue portion is just the information head, but the .bin is the file with the data that needs to be accessed.

in windows the alcohol line and daemon tools line of programs both offer access to the .bin/.cue files along with .iso and .img without having to burn them out to CD with the appropriate tools.

i can successfully mount true .iso files and .img files, but still getting to the .bin portion even after bchunk convertion from .bin/.cue into .iso is not working.

next step without burning the .bin/.cue out to CD first to access the data via *nix?

i have seen several other programs but not much explanation on them.

would really like some help on this please. if there is not a way of doing this via *nix then please say so and ill figure something out in M$ to get it done.

install this:

here's what it does:

bin2iso V1.9b - Converts RAW format (.bin) files to ISO/WAV format
Bob Doiron, ICQ#280251

Check for updates at http://users.andara.com/~doiron

Usage: bin2iso <cuefile> [<output dir>] [-[a]wg] [-t XX] [-i] [-nob]
or : bin2iso <cuefile> -c <binfile>

Where:
<cuefile> - the .cue file that belongs to the .bin file to
be converted
<output dir> - the output directory (defaults to current dir)
-nwg - indicates that audio data found in the track
'gaps' shouldn't be appended to the audio tracks
-awg - looks for non-zero data in the 'gaps', if found
then gaps are appended to audio tracks. Looks
for more than 1/2 of a sector of non-zero values
(588 values),
-t XX - Extracts the XX'th track.
-i - Performs the conversion 'in place'. Meaning it
truncates the binfile after each track is
created to minimize diskspace requirements.
[not valid with -t]
-nob - Doesn't use overburn data past 334873 sectors.
This of course presumes that the data is not
useful.
-c - Attempts to create a <cuefile> from an existing
<binfile>

after you're done making the iso, just use one of the gui tools, or mount by commandline:
i create a folder on my desktop called Disk1 or whatever, and mount the iso like this:

Code:

su
*provide root password*
mount -o loop /home/username/filename.iso /home/username/Desktop/Disk1

done..

to unmount,

Code:

umount /home/username/Disk1

a little bit of typing, but free and painless. After you've done it once, its easy.

do i need to chmod +x Makefile in that dir so it will run?

I've gotten to mount an ISO that I pulled off my Windows partition, mount -o loop ****.iso /mnt/cdrom3 worked (or something like that, it was last night I did it) but how do you make the ISO from within linux?

EDIT: From the command line I mean, I want to learn as much as I can without the GUI

i take it then there is no way to continue beyound a broken Makefile command?

This may be a bit hard to understand but the Makefile is run by tying "make" not running by the file it self.
All the "Makefile" is does it supply "instructions" to the make program that looks for the Makefile in the current dir.

So the Makefile is fine but to use it type "make".

leadazide · 11-11-2004, 03:47 PM

Or take a look at this
http://cdemu.sourceforge.net/

mounts cue/bin images like isos.

Code:

media:~/bin2iso# make Makefile
make: Nothing to be done for `Makefile'.

ok did i not get that right? you are not being hard, and i am still a newbie, but that is how i thought it worked, but isnt there normally an INSTALL file or something that you make install?

so confused.

mykrob · 11-12-2004, 09:32 AM

the process is typically:

Code:

./configure --prefix=/usr

*then*

make

*then*

su
*supply root password*
make install

that should get it installed for you.
Be sure that your are doingthe configure and make process as a regular user, not root. Then do "make install" as root.

ok im so lost here. either this program is screwed up (i am not finding anything that would be normal for *nix or M$ in this !@#$!@#$)

Code:

ray@media:~$ tar -zxf bin2iso.tar.gz
ray@media:~$ ls
Desktop  bin2iso  bin2iso.tar.gz  default  dvd  killvnc.sh  movies  mp3  tmp
ray@media:~$ ls -l

ray@media:~$ cd bin2iso
ray@media:~/bin2iso$ ls
Makefile  bin2iso.c
ray@media:~/bin2iso$ ./configure
-bash: ./configure: No such file or directory

no such animal. the make Makefile does nothing, the ./confige does not exsist what is wrong with this picture here? also i had no way of moving the original directory from /home/root into /home/user i tried -r and -R neither worked. when moving a directory dont you need to do so recursive?

Lleb_KCir · 11-18-2004, 05:09 PM

well i have a temporary work around, but it still does not solve the real problem.

i can use Daemon tools on my winXP box, then i can smbmount //IP/share /mount/point and open the file that way with kaffein, but that still does not help for me to get the .bin and .cue files working native in *nix.

to mount cue and bin files use CDEmu
cdemu.sf.net

Sorry for posting this twice.
