CD ROM/ISO 9660 Images
UNIX and UNIX-like OS
To create an image file make use of "dd". This is one of the core UNIX utilities and is included in every
UNIX-like OS (UNIX, Sun Solaris, Linux).
To create a CD ROM image file you have to copy the contents of the CD ROM to a file. Use the
following command:
dd [
if=/dev/cdrom
] [
of=/tmp/cdrom.image
]
dd reads the entire disc from the device
/dev/cdrom
and saves the output to the specified output file
/tmp/cdrom.image
. Adjust both parameters to suit your needs (input device etc.).
