Test CD-image

[orx57]

Hello,

I create an image of a CD-ROM whit command :

# mkisofs -r -o cd_image private_collection/

I want to test the CD-image.

Has AIX-4.3.3 the ability to mount files as if they were disk partition ?

I have a Linux command :

# mount -t iso9660 -o ro,loop=/dev/loop0 cd_image /cdrom

But i don't know a equivalent of loop device.

Thanks !

Log in as root.
Mount the CDROM as /mnt:
mount -o ro -v cdrfs /dev/cd0 /mnt

But not sure creating the files that way will do it....check out the below..
Good luck....
