RE: Mount a .bin file in Linux

Hi

On Helix (tested on 1.8) try to use disktype first.
Like in your case: 
# disktype image001.bin

This should give you a detailed report of partitions/filesystem within the
given image, provided it is a dd image.

Further explanations on:
 http://disktype.sourceforge.net/doc/

Help! I've created a .bin file of a Windows XP system using 
an X-Late HardCopy device (in image mode). I thought I could 
simply mount the image in Linux (I'm using Helix 0307) using:

# mount -o loop -t iso9660 image001.bin /media/test

but that doesn't work (mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad 
superblock on /dev/loop1, missing codepage or other error).

Any ideas how I can mount a .bin image in Helix so I can 
investigate it? I can mount it in Autopsy, but I want the OS 
to see it.
