I have a file that contains the image of CD rom (as you get it by
copying the image from, say, /dev/cdrom using dd). Under Linux I can
mount the file so it appears as a CD rom using
mount -t iso9660 -o ro,loop=/dev/loop0 file /mnt/cd-image
where file is the name of the file and /mnt/cd-image is the mount
point.
Does anybody know of a similar way to make the file appear as a CD
drive to Windows run under win4lin?
Best
Peter
PS. To answer questions on why I am interested in this: I have
brought a Windows program which is copy protected by requiring that
the CD is in the drive while running the program. I would therefore
like to copy the whole CD on to the hard disk to avoid having to fetch
the CD every time.
