Maybe you should also specify the mount point as an absolute path ( I mean just cd1 is not that clear, not that the system get confused with symlinks in /dev? )

[solved] fstab entry for user mounting of iso files?

fstab entry for user mounting of iso files?
I've seen it before but I can't seem to find it again.

I did, but couldn't find what I was looking for.
I got fuseiso to work, and that will do the trick, so I'm marking this one solved.
(I simply had to give 'others' write access to the mount point)

Error trying to mount the DVD to a network based ISO image in Windows 2008 Hyper-V RC0

Greetings,
When I try to configre the guest OS settings to mount the CD/DVD drive to an ISO image I have setting on a file share, I consistently get an error. The only time I have been able to mount an ISO since upgrading to RC0 (I don't remember if I tested this in the BETA) is when the ISO is locally on the Windows 2008 Hyper-V server.
To be specific, I get the following error:
Virtual Machine Connection (title of the window)
Inserting the disk failed.
Failed to add device 'Microsoft Virtual CD/DVD disk'.
User account does not have sufficient privelage to open attachment '\\remoteserver\share\ISONAME.ISO'.
Error: 'General access denied error'
'NEWGUESTOSNAME' failed to add device 'Microsoft Virtual CD/DVD Disk'. (VMID 26C8B66F-5D3F-47F9-9D80-474D0F778522)
'NEWGUESTOSNAME': User Account does not have sufficient privelage to open attachement '\\remoteserver\share\ISONAME.ISO'.
Error: 'General access denied error' (0x80070005). (VMID 26C8B66F-5D3F-47F9-9D80-474D0F778522)
I am not sure what credentials it is using. It looks almost like it is using the new computer name as credentials or something like that. The account I am logged in as at the time is a Domain Admin and has access to every server and every share. I can browse to the ISO just fine through the Hyper-V Insert Disk function, it just won't take.
I have checked the Hyper-V server settings and the Guest OS settings and can't find where to specifcy what account to use to connect to remote ISOs. Anyone have any clue on what I am doing wrong?

Thanks for the various replies.
Understood it is an issue with the Hyper-V server computer account getting the files, and not the actual guest OS. At this point I think I will just copy some ISO's to the server. I did note the last time I used a "local" ISO that I had to manually type out the local path to the files on the server, as when I tried to browse to the local server drives through the console I got an error about connecting to the local server (which wasn't really local) through the network drives. I don't remember the exact error, but I know I couldn't get it to point to the ISO on the D:\ drive through the browse feature, but rather I just typed out the path and it was fine. That too seems like a bit of a buy/annoyance as I should be able to browse files local to the Hyper-V server, and not have to type out the path.
I guess I would ask MSFT to consider changing the behavior of the console just a little before RTM if it is being run remotely against the Hyper-V server, versus locally on it, if the permissions being used to get to the remote files are going to be different depending. I.E. It is not intuitive that the same exact action in the same exact console would behave any differently when the console is run on the Hyper-V server versus remotely against the Hyper-V server. I.E. Add in a pop-up when remotely connected to the Hyper-V server to let the user know that some permissions may not proxy through (or whatever verbiage you want to use).
This will pop-up more and more as people like me try to deploy Hyper-V on Core servers, and they used Hyper-V on a normal Windows 2008 server previously.
Thanks!

[SOLVED]trying to mount disk so all users can read write

I'm trying to mount my hard drive to /mnt/2TB automatically at startup. My /etc/fstab looks like this...
/dev/sda2 / ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1
/dev/sdb1 /mnt/2TB ntfs auto,exec,rw,users,uid=1000 0 0
ls / shows...
drwxrwxrwx 3 root root 4096 Jun 30 20:09 mnt
ls /mnt shows...
drwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4096 Jun 20 21:21 2TB
When I restart the disk mounts fine but I cannot write anything to disk. I want to mount this disk so that anyone can read, write, and execute on it. I specified these options in my fstab. What options am I missing?
EDIT:
I figured it out. I had to install ntfs-3g. Once I did that I changed my fstab to this...
/dev/sda2 / ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1
/dev/sdb1 /mnt/2TB ntfs-3g defaults,uid=1000 0 0
Then I changed /mnt permissions to ...
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Jun 30 20:09 mnt
Then I changed /mnt/2TB permissions to...
drwxrwxrwx 1 necbot users 4096 Jun 20 21:21 2TB
Works great!

I ran across this in the ntfs-3g manual which might be of some interest. It appears that adding "permissions" to the mount options for ntfs-3g might accomplish roughly what you want, but you may have to perform some work to get it operational. Likewise, the Windows ACL may interfere and a quick glance seems to me to suggest that you might have to tweak things from Windows to get the permissions working well.
I personally have all of my Windows partitions mounted under /windows, but I can see why that isn't an ideal solution if you're dabbling in Arch or have things you want to more easily share in one direction.
Hope this helps somewhat even though you've already marked the topic as solved.

[SOLVED] Error mounting an ISO file located in an EncFS folder

I have some multimedia files inside an EncFS folder (decrypted via cryptkeeper).
When trying to loop mount the ISO files I get:
mount: foo.iso: failed to setup loop device: Permission denied
There's no error mounting the same ISO from a «regular» FS.
Is there a way around this?
Last edited by JoaoVidal (2014-02-24 06:36:42)

unSpawn at linuxquestions.org answered:
See 'man encfs': the warning at "--public" and 'man fuse': "allow_other"
Without setting the option 'public' in encfs or 'allow_other' is fuse, not even root can access the encfs mount and therefore mounting fails (sudo mount...).
Also, cryptkeeper now has the preference "Allow other users to access mounted folders" which gives exactly this kind of permission.

[Triaged] System tries to mount iPod firmware partition

Hi. I switched from hal-easy back to hal today, and it's started doing something weird.
It's trying to mount my iPod's firmware partition now. It's the first partition, and doesn't have a file system on it. So before mounting the iPod's real partition, I get an error dialog about how it failed to mount that first partition, and then proceeds to mount the second one. Icons for both partitions are visible on the desktop, and in thunar. I'm using xfce 4.6, and exo-mountopt from AUR.
It didn't behave this way before switching to hal-easy, and while I was using hal-easy. What could be going on here? How can I fix it?
Last edited by TiZ (2009-09-23 19:35:37)

I found a way to work around this problem.
Create /etc/udev/rules.d/10-local.rules, or if you already have it, add this:
# Ignore iPod's first partition
SUBSYSTEMS=="usb" ATTRS{product}=="Rockbox media player" KERNEL=="sd?1" OPTIONS+="ignore_device last_rule"
SUBSYSTEMS=="usb" ATTRS{product}=="iPod" KERNEL=="sd?1" OPTIONS+="ignore_device last_rule"
This covers iPods with both Apple OS and Rockbox. After making it, the icon for the system partition will still be on the desktop. Just log out and log back in and it will disappear.
And if you get nitpicky about the volume label being all-caps like I do, you can make /etc/hal/fdi/policy/05-labels.fdi and then restart hal:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<deviceinfo version="0.2">
<device>
<match key="volume.label" string="TIZPOD">
<merge key="volume.label" type="string">TiZPod</merge>
</match>
</device>
</deviceinfo>
Unfortunately, these are all only work-arounds for behavior that was not exhibited before... as for when it changed, I can't remember for the life of me. I'd rather not have to use work-arounds, but they're working. I've marked the thread as "triaged" instead of "solved" because the problem's not fixed, just worked around.
Now I'd like to figure out how to get my iPod icon back instead of the boring hard drive icon when I use Rockbox USB, but I'm sure I can just google around for that.

Cannot Mount Any ISO in Windows 8.1 Pro

I cannot mount any ISO images on my Windows 8.1 Pro machine. I have tried the "Mount" under right-click as well as Powershell with the same results. From the UI, I get a simple message "Sorry there was a problem mounting the file."
while from Powershell I get an HResult that from searching seems to be rather generic.
I have followed the idea about upper filter and lower filter. I have made sure that the ISO is not "sparse". I made sure that ISO's are associated with Windows Explorer. I have tried a number of ISO's all from either TechNet or MSDN
with the same results. ProcMon doesn't really offer anything useful as the number of entries is overwhelming to try to limit to just mounting an image.
I read several posts where drive letters were an issue, but no guidance was given regarding what drive letter the virtual drive preferred.
I can mount the same ISO files on another Windows 8.1 Pro machine, so it isn't the ISO itself.
Any ideas? I have spent the entire day working on this problem and I really need some help.
Thanks,
Glen

I was struggling with this too. I found that the problem is a 'sparse' attribute that gets added by the Akamai downloader (known bug). To fix just copy the ISO (and the VHD) files to another folder this removes the (P). I found the answer at:

Error 192 when tring to mount a .iso in toast

Like the title says, when i try to mount a .iso in toast (titanium ver 10) i get a dialog box says 'operation could not be performed because of a osx error. error code = 192'.
I have run disk utility on the .iso to make sure it wasn't corrupt or anything like that and disk utility says its fine.
Any help would be apriciated.

Disk Uutility can mount it but disk utility mount it differently from toast, somthing to do with toast creating a phantom drive that the image mounts into rather than just loading up the image. Which is what I need.
I've tried changing the file extention to .dmg and .toast but no luck with either.

Trying to mount OSX 10.4.7

While updating this am from 10.4.6 to 10.4.7 and trying to mount 10.4.7 PPC Patch.pkg received message there was an error in the pkg. to wit: Application Launch failure The applicatin "(null)" could not be launched because of a shared library error: "2<HP Scanjet Manager.app><Carbon Lib><CFMPriv_ATS>"
The pkg was automatically removed to the trash.
Tried restart and recieved message: Internet Connect won't connect
"Could not find PPP Kernal extension."
So, I guess I'm somewhere between 10.4.6 and 10.4.7. What I think I need to do is download another pkg that's not corrupted and install. but I need to connect to the IN first. But how?
Please help - respond to my work address: [email protected] - I can't connect via my Mac at home.

Did you have a printer connected and turned on when you got this error message? Were trying to run the 'delta' update via Software Update, or did you download the update from the Apple Downloads site?
First thing I would do (if possible), is boot from your OS X install disc, then run Repair Disk and Repair Permissions, in that order, then try booting normally to see if you can get in and launch any applications.
If not, probably your best course of action is to download the 10.4.7 Combo Updater and try installing that in Safe Boot mode.
I hear our tax dollars are used for giving the Feds fast Internet connections, or your could go to a public library with CD-RW burning capabilities and download it there, burn to a CD-RW and take it home, or you might even go to the Apple Store at Southdale or the Sprawl of America and you can download it there, too.
Hope this helps,
Mulder

Cannot mount an ISO file OEL 6.4

[root@collabn1 dev]# mount -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom /media
mount: no medium found on /dev/sr0
I'm trying to mount the OEL 6.4 ISO file which is attached to VirtualBox 4.3.x on my Macbook.
I have OEL 6.4 installed on Vbox, but now I want to mount the ISO. Is there missing tools that need to be installed or something else?

There is no additional software or tools required. The error message means that you do not have the disk image attached to your virtual machine. You first need to attach the iso image to your virtual machine by using the VM devices menu, or by dragging and dropping the iso disk image file onto the disk icon in the virtual machine toolbar. Then you issue the following command:
mount -o loop /dev/cdrom /media

How to mount an .iso file to the cdrom

Hi :
could you give the instruction how to mount an iso file to be acting as the CD-Rom?
Thanks a lot

sorry, i didn't get your point.
I tried with the following commands:
mkdir -p /mnt/disk
mount xxxx.iso /mnt/disk
but i got some error messages. i guess i should put the "-F FSType" parameter after keyword mount, but what parameter should I use?
Thanks

ZFS tries to mount SAN volume before ISCSI is running

I am running Solaris 10 x86 U7. It is actually a VMWare guest (ESX4) on a Sun X4170 server- although I do not believe that that is relevant. I have a Sun 2510 iSCSI SAN appliance. I have an iSCSI volume with a ZFS Pool that is mounted on the server. All was fine until yesterday when I installed the following patches:
142934-02 SunOS 5.10_x86: failsafe patch
142910-17 SunOS 5.10_x86: kernel patch
144489-02 SunOS 5.10_x86: kernel patch
142912-01 (as a dependency requirement for one of the others.)
I had installed the patches in run level 1 , then switched to run level S to allow the patch install to finish.
Now, when I restart the zfs volume on the san is marked as off line. the /var/adm/messages shows the following
Nov 7 00:26:30 hostnameiscsi: [ID 114404 kern.notice] NOTICE: iscsi discovery failure - SendTargets (ip.ad.dr.ess)
I can mount the SAN ZFS pool with
#zpool clear ZFSPOOL1
#zfs mount -a
For iscsi device discovery, I am using send targets (not static or iSNS.) I am not using CHAP authentication.
It seems to be me this may merely be a timing in services and not fundamentally an iscsi issue. Can I tell the OS to wait for a minute after starting iscsi service before continuing with zfs mount and autofs shares? Can I tell the OS to delay mounting non OS zfs pools?
Thanks

Here is what I tried. Installed Batchmod and Xupport on each of internal system disk, backup internal system disk and external system disk. Batchmod could not find the folders automount or Network.
Booting from external disk, I made hidden files visible using Xupport, then deleted automount > Servers, automount > Static on internal disk and backup disk. The folder Network had no files or folder named "Server". Booting from internal disk, the desktop tried to mount server volumes. Examining the internal disk automount folder showed aliases for "Servers" and "static". Get Info said they pointed to originals "Servers" and "static" in folder /automount but these items do not appear in the Finder.
Sometimes icons, not aliases, for "Network", "Servers", and "static" appear on all three desktops on login. Trying to eject these icons by dragging to Trash or highlighting and clicking File > Eject has no effect. Examining Users > Username > Desktop does not show these items. Sometimes ".DS_Store" appears on desktop and in folder Users > Username > Desktop.
Next I deleted user accounts so that all system disks are single user. Booted up on External disk and deleted automount > Servers, automount > Static on internal disk and internal backup disk or their aliases, whichever appeared in Finder. Booting up on internal disk results in... desktop trying to mount server volumes.
Will try an archive and install on internal disk.

Prevent Lion from automatically trying to mount Filevault 2 encrypted volume at startup?

Here's what I'm trying to accomplish: I need two separate partitions, one encrypted with Filevault 2 as a primary working partition, and a second token partition as a "decoy" of sorts, containing a pretty stock install and set as the default boot volume with automatic Guest account log on. In other words, you turn on the computer and it boots to a guaranteed sterile clean desktop. An unsophisticated snoop thinks that's all there is. A more-sophisticated snoop may notice that there's a second (encrypted) volume, but can't access anything without the password.
So I did a clean install of Lion, filling the entire SSD, and then used Disk Utility to shrink the main partition and create a 14 GB secondary partition. I then encrypted the main partition with Filevault 2 from within that logon. Then I rebooted from the clean install USB drive and installed a second instance of Lion on the secondary partition, set up the Guest account, and then set it for auto log on.
So far so good, however, every time I boot into what is supposed to be—to the casual observer anyway—the "decoy" OS, it helpfully throws up a big dialog box stating "Enter a password to unlock the disk '<Your Super-Secret Volume Name Here>'." which I then have to cancel. This is hardly helpful in disguising the fact that there is another partition on the SSD.
I've looked all over Finder's preferences and the System Preferences for a way to make this stop, but I can't seem to figure it out. Anybody know how to keep Lion from helpfully trying to mount encrypted volumes when it loads?
Thanks!

FYI, similar discusion here: http://discussions.apple.com/message/15744942
This is more of a workaround than a solution, but I ended up installing Snow Leopard to the "decoy" partition. It has no idea what to do with the encrypted partition, so it doesn't ask. Good enough for now I guess, but it would be nice if Apple made this configurable.

Mount cdrom_img (iso file) using CLI

Hello all,
I will like to mount a ISO file for OS install from the CLI and not the JAVA WEB UI.
I Read that there is a StorageRedir file and stuff but I have problem to make it start (The Guide is very pure).
My goal in the end is to install a server from CLI using Scripts and Code without human interruption.
Thanks
