Bug Description

Binary package hint: iat

When I ran iat on my terminal to convert an .mdf to .iso, the terminal started filling up the screen with gibbrish (e.g. (*&!@%(!^&@($%^!@($%) and then crashed. After pushing the power on button , the pc turned on for a brief second then crashed. Only after I removed the power cable was I able to boot properly. Again, I didn't run the package as root
