How can an ISO image file be mounted in Linux?

To mount an ISO image file in a Linux system, you can use the following command:

  1. Firstly, create a directory for mounting ISO image files. For example, you can use the following command to create a directory named “iso_mount”.
sudo mkdir /mnt/iso_mount
  1. Next, use the mount command to mount the ISO image file to the created directory. Assuming the path of the ISO image file is “/path/to/your/iso_file.iso”, you can use the following command to mount the ISO image file:
sudo mount -o loop /path/to/your/iso_file.iso /mnt/iso_mount

In this way, the ISO image file will be mounted to the “/mnt/iso_mount” directory, allowing access to the content within the ISO image file through that directory.

  1. To uninstall an ISO image file, you can use the umount command.
sudo umount /mnt/iso_mount

This allows you to uninstall the ISO image file and unmount it.
