Foao Here's another suggested way to set up permanent /etc/fstab entries: # ISO loopback mountable filesystems # # Fedora Core 1 /pub/yarrow-i386-disc1.iso /mnt/fc1/1 iso9660 noauto,users,loop,ro 0 0 /pub/yarrow-i386-disc2.iso /mnt/fc1/2 iso9660 noauto,users,loop,ro 0 0 /pub/yarrow-i386-disc3.iso /mnt/fc1/3 iso9660 noauto,users,loop,ro 0 0 /pub/yarrow-SRPMS-disc1.iso /mnt/fc1/4 iso9660 noauto,users,loop,ro 0 0 /pub/yarrow-SRPMS-disc2.iso /mnt/fc1/5 iso9660 noauto,users,loop,ro 0 0 /pub/yarrow-SRPMS-disc3.iso /mnt/fc1/6 iso9660 noauto,users,loop,ro 0 0 # While vi(m) may appear to fuss about the 'users' and 'loop' entries, they are valid. In fact, I prefer 'users' rather than 'user' because it allows any logged on user to mount and use an ISO image with: $ mount /mnt/fc1/_ <-- complete command with 1..6 --Doc Savage Fairview Heights, IL
