isoinfo: E[x]tract a specific file from an ISO image and send it out `stdout`.
$ isoinfo -i ${path-to-image-iso} -x ${-PATH-TO-FILE-INSIDE-ISO-EXT}
try on your machine

This command is using the isoinfo tool to extract a file from an ISO image. Here is the break down of the command:

  • isoinfo: This is the command-line tool used to extract information from ISO images.
  • -i ${path-to-image-iso}: This option specifies the path to the ISO image file you want to extract files from. You need to replace ${path-to-image-iso} with the actual path to the ISO image file.
  • -x ${-PATH-TO-FILE-INSIDE-ISO-EXT}: This option tells isoinfo to extract a specific file from the ISO image. You need to replace ${-PATH-TO-FILE-INSIDE-ISO-EXT} with the path to the file you want to extract, including its extension.

By running this command, isoinfo will read the ISO image file specified, locate the file specified by the path inside the ISO image, and extract it to the current directory or the specified output location.
