gnome-disk-image-mounter(1)


NAME

   gnome-disk-image-mounter - Attach and mount disk images

SYNOPSIS

   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 URIs are 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.
