Re: [SLE] What is "susee" file on 8.2 livecd?

You need to mount the entire iso image file using your cdrom mount point.
mount -o loop -t iso9660 /path_to/iso_image /path_to/cdrom_mount_point
e.g.
I should not have used the name susee below,... just to clarify
mount -o loop -t iso9660 /susee /media/cdrom
mount -o loop -t iso9660 /path_to/whatever_the_live_eval.iso_is_named /media/cdrom (on one line)
Hi George, Actually, I'm not trying to mount the iso file, but rather a file that actually resides on it. Here's what an 'ls' gives you on the cdrom: Packages boot/ content ctimne-cp1250.txt ctimne-latin2.txt liesmich.txt media.1/ readme-hu.txt readme.txt The file that I'm curious about is in the "boot" directory: # ls -F boot LIESMICH README bootdisk liveeval loader/ modules1.txt modules2.txt rawrite.txt LIESMICH.DOS README.DOS modules1 modules2 rawrite.exe susee You can see the "susee" file there. Here's more info about it: -r--r--r-- 1 root root 636M Apr 10 03:10 susee # file susee susee: data That is the file that I want to check out, but can't figure out how to mount it.

Perhaps the file is gzipped... file -z susee may return the contents. George

Or perhaps the file is actually the kernel which can't be mounted. You don't mount files only filesystems. Ken

A file so big could be an an iso image, or an ext2 image, probably. If you mounted the iso on loop0, you could try to mount susee on loop1 with different types. If that doesn't work, copy the file to your HD (if you have the space) and try again. Cheers, Carlos Robinson
