I need to extract a .bin file and I have no idea how to do it in Ubuntu. In Windows I usually used to do it using MagicISO.

acetoneiso Install acetoneiso

Is a feature-rich and complete software application to manage CD/DVD images. Thanks to powerful open source tools such as fuseiso, AcetoneISO will let You mount typical proprietary images formats of the Windows world such as ISO BIN NRG MDF IMG and do plenty of other things.

sudo apt-get install acetoneiso

bchunk Install bchunk

binchunker converts a CD image in a ".bin / .cue" format (sometimes ".raw / .cue") to a set of .iso and .cdr tracks. The bin/cue format is used by some popular non-Unix cd-writing software, but is not supported on most other CD burning programs. A lot of CD/VCD images distributed on the Internet are in BIN/CUE format.

sudo apt-get install bchunk

bchunk <image.bin> <image.cue> <basename>
sudo mount -o loop basename.iso /mnt
sudo ls /mnt

  • After running the bchunk <image.bin> <image.cue> <basename> command you can double click on the iso image to open it. Oct 12, 2019 at 13:06

Another option is to use fuseiso:

sudo apt install fuseiso

fuseiso file.bin mount_directory

If successful, when you open the mount point (mount_directory), you should see the contents of the file.
