Mounting an ISO Image

If you need to mount an ISO image and do not have access to a burner, you can mount it via a loopback device in Solaris.

First create the loopback device:

# lofiadm -a /export/data/download.iso /dev/lofi/1

Mount the block device you just created:

# mount -F hsfs -o ro /dev/lofi/1 /mnt
