Mount ISO Image on FreeBSD problem!
I'm try to mount an iso on FreeBSD 8.2, but i recive an error; I use the following commands:
# mdconfig -a -t vnode -f /path/to/myimage.iso -u 1
# mount -t cd9660 /dev/md1 /media
and receive the next message:
mount_cd9660: /dev/md1: Invalid argument
I also use mdconfig -d -u * (*- is the device number) to make sure that there are no other iso mounted in the same device. So can anyone help me with an idea?
Thanks in advance!

rmmount [-d] [-l]
rmumount [nickname | mount_point | device]

DESCRIPTION
The rmmount and rmumount utilities mount and unmount removable or hot-pluggable volumes. The optional argument can identify the volume by

-d Display the device path of the default device. This device is used if no arguments are supplied.
-l Display the paths and nicknames of mountable devices.
The following options are supported for rmmount only:
-o options Display mount options. This option can only be used by users that have privileges to override the system default options.
-u Unmounts the volume as opposed to mounting it.

device Specifies which device to mount or unmount, by the name it appears in the directory /dev.
