(ask) Extracting .iso file using xarchiver

[carterleonard]

Hi guys,...

I need to extract iso file using the built in xarchiver program. It seems my version doesnt support it yet. Any idea how to update the xarchiver so i can extract .iso files?

Thank U.

For the uninitiated, Xarchiver is a front-end for various command-line archivers, that apparently at one time had built-in support for handling .iso (CD/DVD) image files. To quote "With the revision 25999 ISO support was dropped; isomaster is better!" So why not give ISO MASTER a spin? It's what they recommend.

Ephraim Tutt takes on the cases no one else wants.

You can try:

$ sudo mkdir /mnt/tmp
$ sudo mount your_iso_file.iso /mnt/tmp -o loop
