Retro, ISO, format-hell:
I could not figure out a way to convert multitrack bin/cue ( CD images) to CCD/IMG/SUB on Linux. After toying around with various tools, I finally submitted to Windows to try. What works: Mount bin/cue with Alcohol 120%, then export using UltraISO to CCD/IMG/SUB
-> resulting image works on the , incl audio tracks.

Is there some easy way to do multitrack BIN/CUE to CCD/IMG/SUB conversion on Linux that i have missed? Boosts welcome.

I am bringing out my SX-64 and we are going to go on an Artificial Intelligence adventure on #ChickenHeadChronicles soon!
