Extracting file from dsl-xxxx.isoForum: Other Help Topics Topic: Extracting file from dsl-xxxx.iso started by: sheldonisaac Posted by sheldonisaac on Mar. 12 2006,15:35
If I understand correctly, new versions of DSL consist of the files KNOPPIX , linux24 , and minirt24.gzSo that if I want to update my frugal hard drive installation, I replace those files with the new ones. So instead of burning the new dsl-xxxx.iso to CD-R with burncdcc etc, can I just extract the 3 files from it? I looked in the forums and by Google, and am asking for how to do this, with a freeware utility. I have seen mentions of isobuster , but apparently it's shareware. Are there Linux programs to extract the files from the .iso ? Many thanks, Sheldon Posted by piccolo on Mar. 12 2006,16:58

Other tip: Also for extract iso images over Linux plataform, you can do: 1) Download from Internet iso image dsl-xxx.iso to hard disk 2) Create folder /mnt/iso 3) cd to folder where you have downloaded dsl-xxx.iso 4) mount -o loop -t iso9660 dsl-xxx.iso /mnt/iso In folder /mnt/iso you will have the files extracted from dsl-xxx.iso !!! |
