Subject: mounting an iso image in AIX

Does anyone have any experience in mounting ISO images in AIX? Can it
be done at all?

In linux, sun, and some other systems, you can do the following to mount
an ISO image:

mount myisoimage.iso /mountpoint -o loop=/dev/loop0

What this will do is allow you to work with the iso as if it were a file
system.

I know there's no /dev/loop device in AIX. Is there another way of
doing this in AIX?

Thanks

Tony
