In Sun Solaris, we can use the Loopback File driver to mount an ISO image without having to write the ISO image onto a CD or DVD.
Following procedure should help you mount an ISO image in Sun Solaris
Attach a Block Device
sunsolaris# lofiadm -a /export/software/iso_image.iso
/dev/lofi/1
Mount the ISO Image block device
sunsolaris# mount -F hsfs -o ro /dev/lofi/1 /mnt
Where /mnt is the mount point.
This should mount the ISO image.
To confirm, change directory to /mnt and do a “ls” to lis the files
Solaris Download Iso
sunsolaris# cd /mnt
sunsolaris# ls
if at anytime, you want to look at these block devices simply type “lofiadm” command with no arguement.
sunsolaris# lofiadm
Block Device File
/dev/lofi/1 /export/software/iso_image.iso
When we are done with the files on the mounted ISO, we can unmount and detach the Block device we attached earlier:
