you can either burn a iso file to a cd using cdrecord

 

cdrecord dev=0,0,0 -speed=16 -v file.iso

 

use cdrecord -scanbus to find out your dev id

 

or mount it using

 

mount -o loop file.iso /mnt/iso

 

make sure /mnt/iso is a empty directory

 

if you want to do the same with a bin file you have to convert it to an iso using an app called bchunk. you can search google for it
