Mount ISO (.iso) In Linux

To mount an ISO (.iso) on a Linux system…

mount -t iso9660 -o ro,loop /path/to/file.iso /path/to/mount/point

In many cases you will not have to specify the “-t iso9660” as most Linux distributions will auto detect that.  The “ro” in the “-o ro,loop” tells this system to mount the .iso read only.
