Mounting ISO Images in Linux

If you are already running Linux, you can save an ISO image to a directory on your machine or another machine on the network. You may then mount the ISO image to look at or copy files. To mount an ISO image, use the following command:

su -c 'mount -o loop -t iso9660 #isofilename# #mountpoint#

In the above command replace and with the correct file name and mount point respectively. The directory given as the mount point must exist.
