This software creates a filesystem that allows all tracks on a CD to be exported as regular files.
If you're looking for a Linux filesystem that can export all tracks and boot images on a CD as normal files, CDfs might just be the solution you need. This ingenious system allows for mounting, copying, and even playing of files such as ISO and VideoCD tracks. The primary aim of the CDfs software was to 'unlock' information in old ISO images, thereby making it easier to access hidden files without having to sift through multiple sessions.
For instance, with a multisession CD that contains two ISO images featuring the file 'a,' you would typically have to use the iso9660 file system to access the second session containing the file. But with CDfs, the sessions are represented as files, making them accessible through loopback mounting.
This feature comes in handy when dealing with faulty multi-session disks like those with multiple single sessions instead of a multi-session. CDfs makes it easy to access data on these disks without the need for additional tweaks. Whether you're looking to play, copy, or mount ISO images easily and efficiently, CDfs has you covered.
