Mount iso image ( ISO 9660 filesystem ) with linux mount command

Posted on February 1st, 2008 by linux

Instead of burning all images to cd / dvd disks is sometimes better and quicker to just mount row iso 9660 file system to your Linux. Lets say that we want to mount myiso9660.iso image.

First create mount point:

mkdir /mnt/myiso

Then mount iso with linux mount command:

mount -t iso9660 myiso9660.iso /mnt/myiso -o loop

All files can be accessed from /mnt/myiso directory.
