but I would like to put the above entry in /etc/fstab so that when the machine is rebooted, the image will be mounted automatically.

How can i mount the iso image automatically with the option mount -oloop in /etc/fstab the CD image has been copied locally.

Can you help? please

Thanks
file /mnt/suse iso9660 loop,auto 0 0

/iso/SLES-9-i386-CD1.iso /free iso9660 loop,auto 0 0



I do this also because extracting files
a. takes up extra space
b. cant be easily burned to bootable cd as easy as and ISO
c. an iso is easier to keep deframented.

Encode::Byte - Single Byte Encodings SYNOPSIS
use Encode qw/encode decode/; $greek = encode("iso-8859-7", $utf8); # loads Encode::Byte implicitly $utf8 = decode("iso-8859-7", $greek); # ditto ABSTRACT
This module implements various single byte encodings. For most cases it uses x80-xff (upper half) to map non-ASCII characters. Encodings supported are as follows.
