Compare this. Does it say mount -o loop=/dev/loop0?

[gentoo-user] *.bin and /dev/loop help

2006-01-17 Thread krgn 
hello,

I would like to be able to mount a *.bin image locally without burning
it beforehand, but I don't understand atm how to create a /dev/loop
device node and make it work so I can mount it. I don't think I need
encryption for it. Which Kernel options are necessary (could  not find
anything about /dev/loop in ck-patched 2.6.15) and how is the procedure
to mount this binary image?

Thanks,

Karsten

 mount -o loop

ok,  installed it as module and its  there...

RockHead src # ls /dev/|grep loop
loop
loop0
loop1
loop2
loop3
loop4
loop5
loop6
loop7

but if I try to mount the iso image.. it outputs this -

RockHead doom # mount -t iso9660 Doom3cd1.iso01.iso /mnt/iso/cd1/ -o
loop=/dev/loop0
ioctl: LOOP_SET_FD: Device or resource busy

so I wonder what this means.

 Wrong mount format. Try

mount -o loop Doom3cd1.iso01.iso /mnt/some_folder_in_mnt

(I think, working from memory)

HTH,
Holly
