Okay, so I I lied a little bit. I’m not sure how to mount a straight bin/cue file combination in Linux, but I do know that it’s really easy to convert them into an ISO file, and then mount the ISO in debian based linux.
sudo apt-get install bchunk
The syntax from bchunk is as follows:
bchunk [-v] [-p] [-r] [-w] [-s]
So if i wanted to convert image,bin and image.cue into image.iso, I’d run the command:
bchunk image.bin image.cue image.iso
Then to mount the ISO in linux you run the command:
mount -o loop -t iso9660 image.iso /mnt/image, where image.iso is the iso is the image that you want to mount and /mnt/image is the mount directory.
Hopefully you’ll find a use for this like I did. If it doesnt work feel free to leave me an email at howe -dot- jon -at- gmail -dot- com and I’ll respond as quick as I can.
Later,

Nice! it works!
liar!
but it works just great 😉
Unfortunately this does nto work with VCDs however. As the cue-file contains 2 images, one with the structure of the disc and one with the data you cant just “mount the image”. I tested merging the 2 files togetherer which didn’t work either though. Maybe its just the image though …
you could play the bin files directly from mplayer.
I found a better solution. That is, if you can get it working. There’s a program called cdemu. It’s actually a kernel module, so you have to compile it yourself. You have to have your kernels source installed also.
It is worth the effort of setting up though.
Thx a lot that help me tons. Hopefully I can help you. Well if you have an ati radeon card an you want to install it on ubuntu edgy. here is a script that will let you do that easy. here!
procedures are slick. I tried it on Fedora 6 and was able to do it as well. Only difference is the option:
sudo apt-get install bchunk
is instead
yum install bchunk
All else is the same.
Thx!
the bhunk and .bin suggestion worked great!

Excellent. Worked first time in Ubuntu
Had to put -r first, to get it to work, maybe it would work with -v aswell, anyway, it works! But am I the only one who get’s to .iso’s ?
Brilliant!
This works like a charm and I had no hitches.
