Convert UIF to ISO
The fastest way to convert an UIF image to ISO image is UIF2ISO. It is a speedy command line tool, that will save you the hassle of installing wine and MagicISO.
This is how I downloaded and installed UIF2ISO, written by Luigi Auriemma.
1. We first need to install zlib and OpenSSL with apt-get.
sudo apt-get install zlib1g zlib1g-dev libssl-dev build-essential
2. Now we can download UIF2ISO with wget from a terminal, or from the author’s site here.
wget http://aluigi.altervista.org/mytoolz/uif2iso.zip
3. Once you have the file downloaded, unzip it and cd into the directory.
unzip uif2iso.zip
cd src
4. Finally compile the source, and create the executable.
make
sudo make install
5. Now you can convert the .uif file to an .iso with the following command:
uif2iso example.uif output.iso
Mounting an ISO
You don't necessarily need to burn a cd in order to access the files within the ISO. You can mount it with some simple commands.
Here is how to mount the ISO from command line.
sudo modprobe loop
sudo mkdir ISO_directory
sudo mount /media/file.iso /media/ISOPoint/ -t iso9660 -o loop
