On a Solaris system, you can use the lofiadm utility to mount an ISO CD image as a loopback filesystem. lofiadm allows you to mount a file containing a filesystem image as if it were a physical device, such as a CD-ROM or floppy disk.
To use lofiadm to mount an ISO CD image, follow these steps:
lofiadm package, if it is not already installed. You can install it using the pkg command, like this:pkg install lofiadm
lofiadm command to create a loopback device for the ISO CD image. For example:lofiadm -a /path/to/image.iso /dev/lofi/1
This will create a loopback device named /dev/lofi/1 for the image.iso file.
mount command to mount the loopback device as a filesystem. For example:mount -F hsfs /dev/lofi/1 /mnt/iso
This will mount the ISO CD image as a filesystem at the /mnt/iso mount point. You can then access the files on the ISO CD image as if it were a physical CD-ROM inserted into the system.
umount command to unmount the filesystem and release the loopback device. For example:umount /mnt/iso
lofiadm command to remove the loopback device. For example:lofiadm -d /dev/lofi/1
This will remove the loopback device and free up the loopback device number for use with another image file.
For more information about the lofiadm utility and its options, you can refer to the lofiadm man page or search online for tutorials and examples.
