Yes, using a "fuse" use-space filesystem, you can mount things as a normal user. There are a couple ISO9660 fuse implemenations. But, you can't modify a mounted ISO9660 filesystem. I have read about how to use a union mount to simulate a writable ISO9660 filesystem, but that's going to require root (I've never tried it). As long as you've got the disk space available, the simplest option is to unpack the .iso into a directory, modify the files, and then use mkisofs to create the new .iso image. I've written scripts like that to build cusotmized bootable ISO images (usually using systemrescuecd as the starting point). It's not particulary difficult, but it does burn up a lot of disk space. It's also rather slow, so when you get into the tweak-build-burn-test cycle you don't get in a lot of guesses-per-hour. -- Grant -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
