    mount point doesnot exist

    Hello,

    I am trying to mount the .iso file of MATLAB to the /media/cdromo accroding to the instruction given by "JustMeMyself" here

    This the output I am getting while trying to mount it.
    Code:
    nityanand@nityanand-Vostro-1500:/media/984C083C4C0817A0/software/Ubuntu/Mathworks.Matlab.R2009b.UNIX.ISO-TBE$ sudo mount matu2k9b.iso /media/cdrom0
    Code:
    mount: mount point /media/cdrom0 does not exist
    What is the problem? any help will be good.

    Your cd rom mount point is probably named something else.
    That's not a problem as you can create a new mount point for it
    Code:
    sudo mkdir /media/isomountpoint
    and then mount your image
    Code:
    sudo mount -o loop matu2k9b.iso /media/isomountpoint
    After you're done with the iso, don't forget to delete the folder,
    Code:
    sudo rm -r /media/isomountpoint
    you don't need it any longer.
