When i was using Win xp i had to create a virtual drive through power iso, alcohol 120,daemon tool or nero smart… Everytime the trial period gets expired and i would be in trouble when i were in need to extract iso..
In linux mounting and unmounting iso images is so simple.. Here to we have some softwares to read iso.. gmountiso and isomaster.. there of few 100 kb size.. but through terminal its too simple..
Mounting:
open the terminal
Login as root by su command
$ su
Password:
Create a directory ie. mount point
$ mkdir /mnt/mountpoint
move to the location where iso is saved and type
$ mount -o loop abc.iso /mnt/mountpoint
We have created a directory named mountpoint and in that directory we have extracted the contents of abc.iso..
Unmounting:
Unmount is so simple.. use umount(its ‘umount’ not ‘unmount’. Be careful while typing )
$umount /mnt/mountpoint
Just specify the directory where we have extracted the iso file…
Enjoy friends and just post your comments ..
