Bin file without a cue file [Solved]

er76 · Last edited by er76 on Sun Oct 02, 2005 3:06 pm; edited 1 time in total

I have a game bin file with no cue file. Is there a way to extract the files from the bin file or create a cue file for it?

I do know that cue files are text files.

Use a bin 2 iso converter, then mount the iso.

I tried creating a cue file with bin2iso, converting the bin file, and mounting the iso with no luck.

I read the domumentation about bin2iso, when creating a cue file, it is for a single track file system.

This bin file must have more than one track.

I think bin2iso just rename the bin file to an iso file.

Mount is unable to determine cdrom filesystem.

Do you have any pointers on using bin2iso?

How did you mount the iso file anyway??? Perhaps it would look something like

mount -t iso9660 -o loop filename.iso /mnt/iso

I mounted the iso the same way you are showing.

I also tried:

mount -o loop -t auto filename.iso /mnt/iso

Didn't work.

I used kiso to convert a .bin file to iso which worked fine.

kiso uses bin2iso though. At least that's what I think.

kiso worked.

Thanks everyone.
