On HP-UX
For version 11.11:
- Start the PFS mount daemon and the PFS daemon:
Shell> nohup pfs_mountd &
Shell> nohup pfsd &
- Then create the directory to mount to and run the pfs_mount command:
Shell> mkdir/CDROM
Shell> pfs_mount-O xlat = UNIX/path/to/isofile/CDROM
Version 11.31:
- Create a new logical volume say 'iso 'of size slightly
Greater than the size of your ISO image in MB. You can do this from
Admin Tool-Sam, or by using the following command.
Shell> lvcreate-l size_of_your_iso-n iso/dev/vg00
- Write your ISO to the new volume. Needless to say, you must have the required free space.
Shell> dd If = path/to/ISO of =/dev/vg00/riso bs = 64
- Now mount it on the directory of your choice, say/CDROM:
Shell> Mount/dev/vg00/ISO/CDROM
On Solaris
- Make the ISO image accessible through the block device. (See the lofiadm man page for more details)
Shell> lofiadm-A/path/to/ISO/your_isao.iso
- Then mount it wherever you want to, say on/CDROM
Shell> Mount-F hsfs-O ro/dev/lofi/1/CDROM
On Linux
- Use the following command to mount on the directory of your choice, say/mnt/myisodir
Mount-o loop myiso. ISO/mnt/myisodir
