For some strange reason, my 9.1 system seems to be missing the section 1

I have an iso9660 image of 9.1 release which I tried to mount to copy
the missing file, but that didn't work (can't find the CD I burned...).

#mount -t cd9660 -o ro FreeBSD-9.1-RELEASE-amd64-disc1.iso /mnt/tmp
mount_cd9660:
/hd1/Downloads/FreeBSD/9_1/FreeBSD-9.1-RELEASE-amd64-disc1.iso: Block
device required

Seems like it must be possible to mount a cd9660 image somehow without
burning an actual disc?

mdconfig -a -t vnode -f /path/to/file.iso

this will create a /dev/md# where # starts at 0 for first one

mount it with

mount -t cd9660 -o ro /dev/md# /mnt
