Mount ISO File

First you need to make the directory to put the ISO file into using the following command

sudo mkdir /media/isodir

Then use following command

sudo mount your_image_file.iso /media/isodir/ -t iso9660 -o loop

Now you should have your iso file mounted, and accessible from your desktop.

Unmount ISO File

Just use following command

sudo umount /media/isodir
