Stop burning CD/DVD’s right now, unless you really need. This is what you have to do to mount an ISO image from a CD, DVD or floppy. Make sure you have persmissions to mount (start a session as root, run “su”, or use sudo… whatever works for you)

First create a mount point, for instance:
mkdir -p /mnt/iso

Then mount the file in that directory with:
mount -o loop disk1.iso /mnt/iso

That’s all! now the content of the ISO file (the same file structure you would find in a burnt media support) is availabe in your filesystem.

This is the scenario:

1) Have a pocket camera with zillions of megapixels and an endless memory card which take clear pictures of an ant’s eyebrow, but each pictures is 5MB?

2) Want to post this pictures on a website/blog or send them through email to a friend bragging about your ultra high-tech camera?

3)Realized your email/website account don’t have enough space or it would take ages to upload all those photos at higher resolution?
