You don't have to mount it for the use with vmware. Update your vmx file with 
the following:

ide1:0.fileName = "changeme.iso"
ide1:0.deviceType = "cdrom-image"

does anyone know how to make a virtual cdrom in linux? kinda like
daemon tools for windows? i have my iso mounted as /mnt/iso but vmware
keeps complaining that i cant use a directory as an iso.  i know
vmware can use iso's as cdroms, but in this instance i cant use
vmware, i have to mount it some other way and just tell vmware its a
cdrom drive.  any suggestions?

TIA
Nick
