Heya,
I have an old dos game on cd. I can’t make it work from dosbox using the cd, so I need to make cue and bin files of it.
How do I do that?
Best regards,

Take a look at Isobuster, it’s supposed to do the job. IIRC there’s a trick to change a .iso to a .bin, done some searching but couldn’t find it anymore.
Hmm…this project will take some time. All I’ve managed so far is to create a .nrg image from my stationary machine, using Nero under windows. Now I’m trying to convert that to an iso-file. Apparently thats no easy task…
nrg2iso --help
Nrg2Iso v0.4 by G. Kokanosky
released under the GNU GPL v2 or later
Usage :
nrg2iso image.nrg image.iso
--version display version number
--help display this notice
Yeah, extremely difficult indeed.
There’s one for that: nrg2iso !!! It’s on the page as well, installing can be done from Software.openSUSE.org, search for nrg2iso, install it, works like this:
Let’s say you have a ‘TEST.nrg’ in your homedir. Open a terminal window, and this is it:
nrg2iso TEST.nrg TEST.iso
IIRC after running it, the header of the .nrg will be changed and the .nrg will be renamed to .iso, done.
Edit: Akoelh posted in the meantime, take that in as well.
And with 2 secs of googling, one wold find a direct way to create a bin from an iso.
Like in the X-files, the truth is out there …
To be fair I managed to figure it out on my own too, after posting that message. I now have a perfectly functioning iso-file. I was so busy tryong out the new iso-file, I forgot to post here that I actually solved it. But thanks for the help anyway !! :)

Cheers, thanks for posting anyway. Nice you got it sorted.
And to answer the primary question “how to create bin/cue from a CD under linux” (for whatever reason):
create bin/cue from CD linux - google search
Now that was really difficult (and cdrdao is your friend).
