Extract .iso files

[dvdhaar]

Thanks for your reply

When using the file-roller I get this message, so apparently it's GUI only:

** (file-roller:27499): CRITICAL **: Failed to parse arguments: Cannot open display:

And with 7zip I get this:

7-Zip  4.58 beta  Copyright (c) 1999-2008 Igor Pavlov  2008-05-05
p7zip Version 4.58 (locale=en_US.UTF-8,Utf16=on,HugeFiles=on,2 CPUs)

Processing archive: test.iso

Error: Can not open file as archive

Going to try the poweriso thing aswell though

Cool! It works:

daniel@server:~$ ./poweriso extract test.iso / -od /home/daniel/isotest

So all I have to do now is to move the poweriso file into /bin/ and then I'll be able to execute it wherever I am right?

Right, anywhere in your path will work

echo $PATH

Beautifully concise and well transacted forum advice (I love Ubuntu people).
p7zip-full is the package needed by those on openvz to extract iso

[Utkarsh Ray]

latest versions of 7zip extract almost everything
