Mount and Unmount ISO images

In the basic setting, ubuntu can browse iso files, but it doesn't mount them under /media. This can be a problem when install softwares, especially under wine. The following is quoted:

I am taking this tip from here first you need to download two scripts for mount iso images download from here for unmount iso images download from here

Once you have these two scripts you need to change the permissions using the following commands

sudo chmod +x /home/username/mount.sh

sudo chmod +x /home/username/unmount.sh

Now you need to copy them nautilus scripts

sudo mv /home/username/mount.sh ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts/

sudo mv /home/username/unmount.sh ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts/

That’s it now you are ready for mounting and unmounting your ISO images.

Then use script context menu in nautilus. If you have an error message, check your file name and folder names where your file is set. Make sure there is no space in the names!
