| 189212 | 2003-11-04 20:43:00 | Want a utility to mount image files (.ISO files) as virtual CD-ROM devices under Windows XP? Well Microsoft has an unsupported utility called Virtual CD-ROM Control Panel for Windows XP that will let you mount image files (.ISO files) as virtual CD-ROM devices. Using this utility means you can copy a CD image to your hard drive and XP will see it as if it were a CD drive. The link is to the executable file Virtual_CD-ROM (www.winxpnews.com) Cheers, Babe. |

| 189215 | 2003-11-05 04:38:00 | I believe it is www.alcohol-software.com (http://www.alcohol-software.com). There is also a neat, smaller program called Daemon Tools, available from www.daemon-tools.cc (www.daemon-tools.cc). |

| 189217 | 2003-11-05 05:29:00 | Alcohol costs, but its worth every cent, especially if you find a download for ClonyXXL!! Daemon tools is free isnt it? Linux can mount .mds, .iso, and others natively ;-) |

| 189218 | 2003-11-05 05:55:00 | how? | ilikelinux (1418) | ||
| 189219 | 2003-11-05 05:58:00 | oh.. let me guess. in bash: mount (filename) /mnt/(mountpoint) |

| 189220 | 2003-11-05 17:52:00 | mount -t iso9660 -o loop /home/ilikelinux/cd_image.iso /mnt/image1/ Obviously this assumes you have /home/ilikelinux/cd_image.iso (Change it to your ISO location.. or MDS's seem to work too). /mnt/image1/ is where you'll be mounting it obviously, and again you can chop and change this to suit your needs. Chill. |
