The problem is that when you use mkisofs it doesn't write a whole partition label so you have to mount it in the vdsdev as a slice:

The solution is to export the ISO with the "slice" option (add-vds options=slice), then you should be able to mount slice s0:

Code:

primary # ldm add-vdsdev options=slice /export/image.iso image-iso@primary-vds0

Code:

primary # ldm add-vdisk image-iso image-iso@primary-vds0 ldg1
ldg1 # mount -F hsfs /dev/dsk/c2d1s0 /mnt
