That's not a sarcastic question: it is not necessary to use vnconfig or mount to _use_ the bootable ISO image, at least if you follow the direction in the INSTALL.amd64 file, so you're doing something unusual. Also, you don't actually say *EXACTLY* what you did, or what the results were, so how can we explain how your third command had the wrong argument when we don't know what your third command was? > I'm able to perform the same steps on an alpine ISO (vnconfig/mount). ...to accomplish what? > Curious if anybody has experience getting one of these ISOs "working"... to > mount locally, and ultimately get written to a USB stick to apply the bios > update.
