777 is not the magic sledgehammer to fix all permission problems.

Your "iso" file is now writable and executable by everything on the system, you should set it 660 before someone comes along and overwrites it with something nasty.

I suspect it means what it says... that your iso file is not actually an iso. What does this print to terminal? file /usr/lib/virtualbox/additions/VBoxGuestAdditions.iso

use Encode qw/encode decode/; $greek = encode("iso-8859-7", $utf8); # loads Encode::Byte implicitly $utf8 = decode("iso-8859-7", $greek); # ditto ABSTRACT
