You really do not need special tools on linux or unix like OSes for mounting image files.

If the image is an ISO, you can mount it using the mount command itself.

mount -o loop image-file.iso /mnt/mount-directory

Of course depending on the image type, you have to tell the mount command what type of image it is. Example if it is a Apple image (dmg), then hfs

mount -t hfs -o loop image-file.dmg /mnt/mount-directory

Thanks for the info. It has been more than 20 years since my Unix days. I'd guessed what they said is true. If you don't use it, you loose it.... :oops:

i've used cdemu before. it's not too bad. I would say use the built in loop mount for iso files. You can convert others to iso pretty easily (nrg2iso and others). cdemu is versatile (sp?).

if you trying to do 'dvd' images the it wound be mout -t iso9660 -o loop 'image name here' /mnt/'your mount point'

most dvd's have a iso9660 and a udf section. most apps play nice with the iso9660 option though
