In my thread How to organize disks with Disk Explorer Pro 3 under wine, I got many replies with other similar tools. One if them was CdFly.

How to compile CdFly
First you need to download the source or from SVN repository.

Install libraries needed to compile CdFly
$ sudo apt-get install build-essential libqt4-dev

Go to the directory with the extracted source and create a Makefile and compile it
$ qmake-qt4
$ make

Now you can start CdFly by
./cdfly

The purpose of disktype is to detect the content format of a disk or disk image.

Install the pakage
$ sudo apt-get install disktype
coreutils: /bin/ls

How to use disktype

Analyzing a CD Image:
#sudo disktype image.iso

Analyzing the first IDE hard disk:
#sudo disktype /dev/hda

Analyzing a CD or DVE
#sudo disktype /dev/cdrom



I found the webpage Ubuntu Tips and Tricks which has some nice hints on how to find the package that provides a file or directory

How to find the package that provides a specific file:
$ dpkg ?S /bin/ls
coreutils: /bin/ls

How to find the package even if it’s not installed that provides a specific file:
First you need to install apt-file
$ sudo apt-file update
Now you can look for the packe by
$ apt-file search /usr/bin/jove
jove: usr/bin/jove
