Hi all,
I have the iso file of FC5 in my FTP server. I want to do an FTP install from
it. I then use the mount -o loop file.iso command to provide the files for
installation.
The problem is that it only works for 1 iso file at a time on that particular
mount point.
This is why it's sometimes a better idea to download the DVD ISO even if
you don't have a DVD reader/writer.
Can I mount multiple iso files into one mount point at the same time?
Not usefully.
What you could do would be to mount the five CD ISOs on different
directories and then make symlinks to all of the files on all of them
from a sixth directory, and then use the sixth directory as the place
you install from.
However, it would be *much* easier to do an NFS install, which can use
the ISO images directly (just put them all in the same directory and
point the installer at that directory) and doesn't need any of that
messing about.
