[08-26-11 15:02]: One thing that was nice in OS X was the ease of mounting an image as a virtual disk. I rarely had use for this however until I got a netbook, which has no optical drive. Now when I have hoped to install certain games (running on WINE) this is unnecessarilly complicated, if not impossible due to the lack of optical drive and the lack of an easy mounting option. Can we be sure to add an easy way to mount disk images? Maybe just right click>mount image in Dolphin? I don't imagine it should be very hard to implement, and would be very useful... especially as more users are turning to netbooks and similar devices.
well, it is very simple but not point-and-click...
mount -o loop -t iso9660<isofilename> <mountpoint>
further help available.
I have no doubt that a script for Konqueror or Dolphin could be set up. I've done that for the tools for PDFs .. Oh wait! Right-click on a .iso ... -> Actions -> browse iso Oh look!
