I try to mount an .iso file. I use:
sudo mkdir /media/fakecd
sudo mount -t iso9660 -o loop /path/to/your.iso /media/fakecd
But I get this error message:
can't find /media/fakecd in /etc/fstab
What am I doing wrong?
Can you check whether the partition(/path/to/your.iso) you are trying to mount has entries in the /etc/fstab file.
If the entries in not present in the fstab files,only root user is set tomount the partition.To do automate mount please try to add them in the fstab file.
I can't tell you how to do this via terminal, but I used to mount an ISO with nautilus
, by right-clicking the file and selecting something like open with... > archive mounter (I don't know the exact words as I use the German translation). Then it should appear in the left half of the nautilus
explorer, near the network places. I hope you can do something with this advice. Greetings!
sudo mount -o loop '/path/to/your.iso' '/media/fakecd'
) the issue is still there?sudo mount /media/fakecd
. Could you show us your /etc/fstab?/path/to/your.iso
is understood as option, not device. To exclude such situation command could look likesudo mount /path/to/your.iso /media/fakecd -o loop
