I want to mount the USB drive on the Linux OS(HELiOS) via command line, there is a ISO image present in the USB. I want to see the directories present in the ISO image. Label/Name given to the USB is "LIVE".

Can somebody help with commands to mount and see the contents of the ISO image file.

Thanks in Advance

Following command will mount USB device at /dev/sda1 on /mnt which has fat32 file system.

mount -t vfat /dev/sdc1 /mnt

If you dont know the device name of the disk run this command just after attaching it to USB port. 

dmesg  | tail | egrep '[hs]d[a-z]: [hs]d[a-z][0-9]+'

This will show you the device name. Like it shows [589.289070] sdc: sdc1 in my pc. Then device name would be /dev/sdc1. /mnt directory is already there all the time.

Following command will mount the iso.

mkdir ~/iso
mount /mnt/isofile.iso ~/iso -o loop

See the contents in the iso.

ls ~/iso
