In case you need to convert Nero image file .nrg into regular ISO9660 .iso utility nrg2iso might be helpful then. It’s included into apt repositories of Debian and Ubuntu, so to install it execute:
sudo aptitude install nrg2iso
When it’s done, convert file by command:
nrg2iso image.nrg image.iso
Rather trivial task, right?

Except it often doesn’t seem to generate usable ISOs. Give it a try sometime.
Hi Downer,
Do you use nrg2iso 0.4 or earlier version? Download latest one here.
http://code.google.com/p/nrg4iso/
its non-compiled source code.
I don’t know how to compile it. gcc gave me some error.
Hi,
if it complains about unknown endianess and you’re using a x86 compatible machine, you can add
-DBYTE_ORDER=”LITTLE_ENDIAN”
to the CFLAGS in the Makefile.
Regards,
Patrick
this is a nice programm .. thank you
Crap…it says that the file is not a valid ISO9660-File. DAMN!
Thanks, it worked fine.
Very useful! thanks
I found this handy command from somewhere (I can’t remember where) which will mount a Nero Image:
mount -o loop,offset=307200 image.nrg /placetomount
It turns out that a Nero image is just a ISO with an added header so we just skip the header to so can mount it.
Thanks! worked like a charm…
i test version 0.4 and is working fine
8 nrg img converted in iso and all burned on cd working great
Thanks for the info i really needed it =D it worked great
funny when i try
‘nrg2iso image.nrg image.iso’ (without sudo) is says: ‘Segmentation fault’
anyway, works great whit sudo
thankx… gr8 job….
>> Crap…it says that the file is not a valid ISO9660-File. DAMN!
Exactly. I have had the same experience. Crap.
@ Sangas
>> mount -o loop,offset=307200 image.nrg /placetomount
Sorry, this doesn’t work:
# mount -o loop,offset=307200 myfile.nrg /media/disk
mount: you must specify the filesystem type
or you posted without checking if it worked? [I am using Sabayon 5.o, an excellent Gentoo based distro.]
nrg2iso 1.0.1 just announces that my .nrg file is a Nero DAO with 1 session, generates a zero-byte .iso file and exits with no errors.
Wow. That was fast. Ubuntu 9.10

i installed using apt-get
i typed in convert command the simple way ex: [nrg2iso image.nrg image.iso] and the detailed way ex: [nrg2iso home/compname/desktop/image.nrg image.iso]
both ways the terminal always says “image.nrg no such file” or ” home/compname/desktop/image.nrg no such file”
is there something i’m missing?? the .nrg file is a valid i checked it and i can mount it but i need to install this program via virtual machine so i need .iso file.
