Hi,

It seems that my gentoo cannot mount iso9660 file.

Code:
$sudo mount -o loop  install-amd64-minimal-20150709.iso  /mnt/cdrom/
mount: /dev/loop0 is write-protected, mounting read-only


but ls /mnt/cdrom gives nothing.

dmesg gives:

Code:
[ 5575.974657] ISO 9660 Extensions: Microsoft Joliet Level 3
[ 5575.974688] ISO 9660 Extensions: RRIP_1991A


another iso file,

$sudo mount -o loop matv.iso /mnt/cdrom/

dmesg shows:

Code:
[ 5849.961064] ISO 9660 Extensions: Microsoft Joliet Level 3
[ 5849.961086] ISOFS: changing to secondary root


Still, $ls /mnt/cdrom/ gives nothing

any solution?
Thanks

Well If I were you I would create a new directory in the first place

and use those mount commands or fuse-iso to mount at that new directory.

/mnt/cdrom could be in use for example or something else. symlink or ..

not sure if that yields anything on your situation but worth a try

lsof |grep cdrom

maybe you see something using that mountpoint already...

I usually install with /mnt/gentoo for the iso. becuase that mount point is in no guide and for sure not used for anything..


when you want ot look into iso images use

mount

isomaster

or

[I] app-misc/binwalk
Available versions: (~)2.0.1 {graph PYTHON_TARGETS="python2_7 python3_3 python3_4"}

Not every iso contains human readable files in the first place ... Binwalk first and than go on
