daa2iso

Convert PowerISO's daa disk images to standard iso ISO-9660 images.

About

Original author of this code is Luigi Auriemma, to whom all the credits for this code belong. See also the original readme.

daa2iso's latest version was published around 2009, and has since been made available in some popular GNU/Linux distributions' official repositories, such as:

• Ubuntu
• Fedora

Original source code of daa2iso is available on Luigi's website, and now on GitHub, mainly for posterity, and accessorily for the purpose of the undisk-app.

Publishing on GitHub simplifies processes like automatic download-and-build the sources. An example of that is daa2iso-bin, a modularized version of daa2iso (usable with Node.js), which can compile this code on-the-fly when installed.

You can grab the latest untouched version (0.1.7e) found on Luigi's website from our 0.1.7e release.

All versions released after 0.1.7e differ from Luigi's original work, to include things like:

• build documentation (see below)
• pre-built binaries for GNU/Linux (x86|x64) and Windows (x86|x64) in the build directory
• separate Makefile for Windows
