Such a software should be able to create 1 or more virtual CD/DVD
drives. With this done, the OS thinks there's another cd drive
attached to the system. Now mounting an iso image on this virtual
drive should be analogous to inserting a physical cd into a physical
cd drive.
There is not concept of *drives* on linux/unix. What you can do is use mkisofs to create an ISO image of the CD and mount it to any directory in your tree. That would solve your purpose.
Further if you have an iso file:
mkdir my_cd mount -o loop <path>/<file_name>.iso my_cd cd my_cd ls

P.S. I don't remember the max loop devices u can mount. -- ______________________________________________________________________ Pune GNU/Linux Users Group Mailing List: ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) List Information: http://plug.org.in/mailing-list/listinfo/plug-mail Send 'help' to [EMAIL PROTECTED] for mailing instructions.
