Here’s how to convert from various disk image formats to *.iso format in Linux Mint / Ubuntu:

1. Issue the following command at the terminal –

sudo apt-get install b5i2iso cdd2iso cdi2iso mdf2iso nrg2iso pdi2iso daa2iso uif2iso

2. After the installation is complete, use the following commands to convert disk images from various formats to *.iso format –

a) To convert a *b5i or *.bwi (BlindWrite) image to *.iso format –

b5i2iso <filename.b5i>

or

b5i2iso <filename.bwi>

Either of the above commands will convert and create a file ‘filename.iso’.

b) To convert *.img (CloneCD) image to *.iso format –

ccd2iso <filename.img> <filename.iso>

The above command will convert and create a file ‘filename.iso’.

c) To convert *.cdi (DiscJuggler) image to *.iso format –

cdi2iso <filename.cdi> <filename.iso>

The above command will convert and create a file ‘filename.iso’.

d) To convert *.mdf (Alcohol 120%) image to *.iso format –

mdf2iso <filename.mdf>

The above command will convert and create a file ‘filename.iso’.

e) To convert *.nrg (Nero) image to *.iso format –

nrg2iso <filename.nrg> <filename.iso>

The above command will convert and create a file ‘filename.iso’.

f) To convert *.pdi (Instant Copy) image to *.iso format –

pdi2iso <filename.pdi>

The above command will convert and create a file ‘filename.iso’.

g) To convert *.daa (Direct Access Archive / PowerISO) or *.gbi (gBurner) image to *.iso format –

daa2iso <filename.daa> <filename.iso>

or

daa2iso <filename.gbi> <filename.iso>

Either of the above commands will convert and create a file ‘filename.iso’.

  1. Hi,
    Thanks for your sharing. I came from a google search.
    I was trying to convert uif format to iso but uif2iso always give me nrg files that i needed to convert again. My original source was some VCDs I backup with MagicISO into uif format. Some of these disc has been trashed.
    Thus, i was trying to find a way to “pipe” uif2iso result to nrg2iso.
    Anyway, the conversion went well, but the resulted nrg and iso files can only be played back on Windows and not Linux Mint 11.
    Interestingly, the iso can be played back on my A.C Ryan media player – which is running some kind of ’embedded’ linux.
    Well, just to share my 2 cents.
    Bob
