OK. Looks like something is wrong with the devices. I tried it manually
and this is what I got :

Hmm, you were showing at least /dev/loop0 being used earlier.
Try making 6 mount points and mounting the 6 ISO images manually. If this
fails then something may be wrong with you loopback devices. If it
succeeds then something may be wrong with the script.
