Mount .ISO's in Ubuntu Linux The Easy way



I download .iso's all the time, and wanted to be able to mount iso's for winblows games on wine. What this does is map your iso to a filesystem directory. Here is what I did, and here is what you can do as well.

First grab fuseiso

sudo apt-get install fuseiso

Then lets add ourselves to the fuse usergroup

sudo adduser myusename fuse

If you were not in the fuse group you will need to log off, then back in right now.Now lets create ourselves a fuseiso folder to mount our iso

sudo mkdir /media/fuseiso

Now we just grabbed an iso off the net, so lets mount it!

sudo fuseiso myisofile.iso /media/fuseiso

Ok now the iso is mounted and we can use it like its a cd/dvd Nautilus/cd your way to /media/fuseiso and the files from the iso will be mounted readonly.
