| + | A mountpoint is anywhere you have an open directory with appropriate permissions. It's no good getting people in the mistaken mindset that there's something special about any one folder. --[[User:Jimbo|Jimbo]] 09:14, 11 Nov 2005 (EST) | ||

help me please
do you actually have a /mnt/cdrom?
Do you actually have a directory /mnt/cdrom? One has to exist before you can mount something else on it. If you do have a /mnt/cdrom and the mount command that you just listed didn't work, then your ISO file is not valid. --Jimbo 16:29, 9 Nov 2005 (EST)
more likely
it's more likely that your mountpoint is /cdrom

there is no "One True Mountpoint"
A mountpoint is anywhere you have an open directory with appropriate permissions. It's no good getting people in the mistaken mindset that there's something special about any one folder. --Jimbo 09:14, 11 Nov 2005 (EST)
