Ubuntu – mounting an iso file

To mount an iso file to copy files.

open your terminal
First you must have a folder to mount the iso file to, type:
sudo mkdir /media/isofile

now you mount it with some special options.
sudo mount myiso.iso /media/isofile/ -t iso9660 -o loop

Now your files will be mounted in /media/isofile/ folder.  They will be read only so you will not be able to add to them.
