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" Cheers Uwe Nick Smith wrote:
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
