    File extensions mostly don't have the same meanings on Linux/Unix as they do on Windows - so unless we know exactly what this "rootfs.bin" file is or where you got it, it's hard to advise you

    Take a step back and tell us exactly what you are trying to do

    It's a bit annoying to mount bin files, because you'll have to convert it to iso first.

    Code:
    # apt-get install bchunk
    $ bchunk image.bin image.iso
    $ mount -o loop -t iso9660 image.iso ~/dir/image
    When that's done, all you need to do is cd into ~/dir/image (replace ~/dir/image with whatever directory you want).

    Code:
    $ cd ~/dir/image
    $ ls -al

    Hi,

    Perhaps that is not a CD image that bchunk can handle at all. Please post the output of the command
    Code:
    file rootfs.bin
    That will hopefully tell us exactly what type of file rootfs.bin is.

    Have you tried....

    bchunk IMAGE.bin IMAGE.cue IMAGE.iso

    That's assuming you have the cue file available.
