ISO mounting problems..


Hi there

Im trying to mount .iso file to Linux. I use command
mount -t iso9660 -o loop /home/echowarrior/StarCraft/Starcraft.iso /mnt/iso

But I get
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop0,
missing codepage or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so

Is there something wrong on my command or what?

Thanks for everyone who answers

do not use -t iso9660.

Simply:

mount -o loop /home/echowarrior/StarCraft/Starcraft.iso /mnt/iso

It says now
mount: you must specify the filesystem type

What do you get when you run:
file /home/echwarrior/StarCraft/StarCraft.iso
?

I would say you have a bad .iso.
when I mean run - what happens when you type that command in a terminal?

Why not just mount -o loop the .img file?
