Well when I tried using the virtual floppy disk (.img) file in VirtualBox I kept getting errors, and I tried using ImageWriter to burn the .img file to my micro sd card so I can give MeeGo a try. However I kept getting errors, and then it hit me.
How could I convert an img file to a iso?
Well after searching in Synaptic Package Manager, and a search on Google I foundout how.
First you'll need to install ccd2iso. (code below will vary from distro to distro)
To convert an img to an iso you'd now put down the following code, after you've navigated to directory in which your img file is located.

After that now converting an img file to a iso is as easy as eating chicken (ooooo do I love chicken :mrgreen:)sudo apt-get install ccd2iso

NOTE: I came across errors using this with other files so it won't work for every file, but it does work with most.ccd2iso file.img file.iso
hmm, i didn't know you could convert Image format into a ISO format? :?
a .img is a virtual floppy image/disk just like a .iso is a virtual cd/dvd disk.
You could also mount the img file and use mkisofs to create the ISO image.
Code: Select all
mkdir /mnt/imgfile
mount file.img /mnt/imgfile
mkisofs -o file.iso /mnt/imgfile
