On many UNIX platforms, you can use the .iso image file directly through the DVD emulation provided with some of the platform DVD device drivers. For Linux systems, you can use the .iso image by mounting it on the .iso file system driver.
To mount the .iso image file using Unix, open a command prompt and issue a command similar to the following:
mount -t .iso9660 -o ro,loop,dev filename.iso /mnt/CAcd
This command mounts the .iso image file (filename.iso) at the /mnt/CAcd mount point, thereby allowing DVD contents to be accessible through the /mnt/CAcd directory.
