gnome-disk-image-mounter

Attach and mount disk images

SYNOPSIS

' gnome-disk -image -mounter 'u gnome-disk -image -mounter [ --writable] [ URI ...]

DESCRIPTION

gnome-disk -image -mounter can be used to set up disk images . Both regular files and GVfs URIs (such as smb://filer/media/file .iso) can be used in the URI parameter . If no URI sare given and a window server is running, a graphical file chooser will be presented .

Note that gnome-disk -image -mounter will not mount filesystems or unlock encrypted volumes in the disk image -this responsibility is left to the automounter in GNOME Shell to ensure that the same interactions happen as if the disk image was a regular physical device or disc .

By default the disk images are attached read -only, use the option --writable to change this .

RETURN VALUE

gnome-disk -image -mounter returns 0 on success and non -zero on failure .
