Which is the best FOSS ISO mounting program?
>>
>>53204560
mount with loopback arg.
>>
>>53204560
>Which is the best FOSS
Stopped reading there.
>>
Just use daemon tools.
>>
I like WinCDemu but it needing to install a high permission driver to work makes me uncomfortable.
>>
>>53205559
Can you explain why, please?
>>
>>53205594
memes
>>
>>53205594
What's the point of FLOSS without libre?
>>
>>53205563
Why should I? It's freemium... There are freeware and shareware alternatives. These have more priority.
>>
>>53204560
>ISO mounting program
Why?
>>
>>53205578
It does not mounts ISO.
>>
losetup

It's free-as-in-freedom
>>
>>53205840
Can you explain it? I could not find an explanation outside of this thread.
>>
>>53204560
PySDM. Normally your file manager whould be able to do this
>>
>>53206029
I'm going to just assume you're not a native English speaker,

>"Stopped reading there"
This means that the person reading your post found it so ridiculous that they decided that it was not worth their time to read the rest of your post.
>>
>>53205859
I read this text, and found that this matter isn't relevant:
https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/floss-and-foss.html
>>
>>53204560
You have to list the OS too, anon. And fwiw *nix can just mount them directly, with no need for a program.
>>
>>53205939
Because I need to mount an ISO.
>>
>>53206171
See >>53206070
But why do you need to mount an ISO?
>>
>>53205543
This
>>
>>53206003
Does not have a Windows version.
>>
>>53206233
Windows' fault then
>>
>>53206070
Appears this softwares isn't avaiable to Windows...
>>
>>53204560
the mount command.
>>
>>53206275
See >>53206251
But why do you need to mount an ISO?
>>
>>53206089
This I can understand... I asked how could "FOSS" be a meme.
>>
>>53206301
It isn't, he said the fact that he stopped reading in the midst of a sentence is a meme
>>
>>53204560
Do you prioritize FOSS programs, OP?
>>
>>53204560
It's not FOSS, but I like WinCDEmu. It's free as in $0, and that's good enough for me.

Now, if you were on Linux, this wouldn't even be a question, since ISO mounting is built right into the OS.
>>
>>53206152
Sorry, I forgot again to mention... It's Windows 7.
I don't know what is a "fwiw *nix".
>>
>>53206361
For what it's worth, UNIX-based operating systems (including UNIX clones like LInux) can mount them directly.
>>
>>53206215
Because I have a .iso and want to use it.
>>
>>53206477
You didn't answer my question.
>Want to
Why? Don't tell me games, OP
>>
>>53205543
I think Windows does not support this.
>>
>>53206537
there are programs, you have to download programs to do basic things on windows.

I have one, for playing morrowind whenever I get drunk and want to play a video game; but its been so long since i've switched over to windows and its 2 in the morning so i'm not switching over now.

Fucking google it m8
>>
>>53206251
wut??
>>
7zip for the most part
>>
>>53206286
I guess Windows does not have this.
>>
>>53207086
Then I guess that Windows was a mistake.
>>
>>53206288

>>53206477
>>
>>53206537
I don't know if it's FOSS but I use imDisk.
>>
>>53206301
It's an unfunny meme.
>>
Windows 10™ doesn't have this problem.
>>
>>53207455
What problem?
>>
>>53207468
the problem of needing third party software to mount an iso
>>
>>53207455
Mah nigga!
>>
In Windows all FOSS programs are inferior to Daemon Tools, yes even WinCDEmu.
Either Daemon Tools or Nero/Alcohol.
>>
>>53207520
Nigger, in Windows all you have to do is double click the ISO and it'll auto mount
>>
Frendly reminder that Iso mounters are non-hostile ROOTKITS.

at least install one that is open source
>>
>>53207455
Windows 8 didn't either.
>>
>>53207471
Neither has my Arch :^)
