Downloading from the newsgroups i have a image that is in .mdf format and has a "cue" file of .mds

If it were a .bin and .cue file i would simply run bchunck on it to convert it to a ISO so that i could burn the image.

I am having no luck finding a application that will convert the .mdf image to a ISO. Anyone here every had any experiance with this type, or know what to run on it to convert?

NB, no answer.

 Extension: MDS
Program and/or Extension Function: Media Descriptor CD Image File

Specific Notes

This file is used by several different programs. It generally is found with an .ISO CD image file and is the equivalent of what a .CUE file is to a .BIN image.

NB, searching in Google Linux on the following term resulted no hits:

"Media Descriptor" .MDS "Media Descriptor" "CD Image"

Searched the web for "Media Descriptor" dvd. Results 1 - 10 of about 15.
