isoinfo

The isoinfo command in Linux is used to extract information from ISO 9660 images. ISO 9660 is a standard file system format for optical media, such as CDs and DVDs.

The syntax of the isoinfo command is as follows:

isoinfo [options] image

The image argument specifies the path to the ISO image file.

The options argument controls the behavior of the isoinfo command. The most common options are as follows:

  • -d: Display the directory structure of the ISO image.

  • -t: Display the table of contents of the ISO image.

  • -l: Display the list of files in the ISO image.

For example, the following command will display the directory structure of the ISO image file myimage.iso:

isoinfo -d myimage.iso

This command will display the directory structure of the ISO image file myimage.iso.

The following command will display the table of contents of the ISO image file myimage.iso:

isoinfo -t myimage.iso

This command will display the table of contents of the ISO image file myimage.iso.

The isoinfo command is a useful command for troubleshooting ISO image files. It can be used to see if the ISO image file is corrupt, and to see what files are contained in the ISO image file.

Here are some additional things to keep in mind about the isoinfo command:

  • The isoinfo command can only be used to extract information from ISO 9660 images.

  • The isoinfo command will not work with other types of image files, such as .img or .bin files.

  • The isoinfo command can be used to extract files from ISO image files.

It is important to be aware of these limitations when using the isoinfo command, so that you do not get confused by the output or accidentally extract files from the ISO image file.
