    You don't need an extra application to mount .iso file in Linux, the kernel itself can do this using mount

    mount -o loop /path/to/image.iso /where/you/want/to/mount/it

    Code:
    dd if=/dev/hdc of=~/myiso.iso
    where /dev/hdc is your cdrom drive and ~/myiso.iso is the name of the new iso
