how to using downloaded iso image directly instead of cutting a DVD
Asked by
s bahadur
I have already installed ubuntu 11.04 using the CD iso image using a USB boot device.
Now I have downloaded the DVD iso image for Ubuntu 11.04.
I do not wish to make a DVD unnecessarily.
I wish to install more packages from this iso image using synaptic.
But synaptic is insisting on mounting a DVD or cdrom, and there appears no way to get it to pick from the iso file.
Even if I mount the iso image in a directory /media/cdrom it is not picking up the image.
What is the way to configure it to pick from iso image file, of a local directory without automatic cdrom mounting.
