Ubuntu Linux Help

MoPedia found such a simple tool for changing img files to iso. So simple in fact, that I wish we would have found it. Here’s the info from Mopedia below! And check out MoPedia’s site, there’s even more goodies there that just this: http://www.mopedia.co.uk/

I downloaded a file the other day thinking it was in the .iso format, but it turned it to be .img file instead. I couldn’t find any programs that recognized it. I was about to delete the file when I came across some commands that can convert img, nrg and mdf to iso format for easy burning.

First thing I did was to install the commands:

sudo aptitude install nrg2iso ccd2iso mdf2iso

Then you can use the following simple commands for converting to iso. Make sure you are in the same directory as the file you’re converting,

For img to iso:

ccd2iso file.img file.iso

For mdf to iso:

mdf2iso file.mdf file.iso

For nrg to iso:

nrg2iso file.nrg file.iso

Once you have converted your file you can easily create an image disk using K3b or GnomeBaker.
