Ubuntu – How to merge two .iso split-files into one image-file

12.10command lineisomerge

I am following this tutorial, in order to install Android onto my computer via Virtual Box.

My problem is, they want you to download:

  • liveandroidv0.3.iso.001
  • liveandroidv0.3.iso.002

Then they want you to merge these two files in terminal, with: 

cat liveandroidv0.3.iso.001 liveandroidv0.3.iso.002 > liveandroidv0.3.iso

The problem is, whenever I run the command, I get the following output:

cat  liveandroidv0.3.iso.001 liveandroidv0.3.iso.002 > liveandroidv0.3.iso
cat: liveandroidv0.3.iso.001: No such file or directory
cat: liveandroidv0.3.iso.002: No such file or directory

So, I was wondering if there was an alternative way to merge these files, or if you guy's could help me merge them this way?

Additional Info: I downloaded the files to my /downloads folder in my /home directory.

Use the absolute paths of all three files involved. It'll make for one hell of a one liner, but it should do it. E. g.:

cat /path/to/liveandroidv0.3.iso.001 /path/to/liveandroidv0.3.iso.002 > /path/to/liveandroidv0.3.iso
