How to mount raw disk image file

it was not an iso file it was an img (if you read my iso post)

please no cli this time only gui (or just simple commands)

because its so complex to mount the img

i want to mount to img files but i cant for a old game

“it was not an iso file it was an img”

here is what it relates to

You seem not to understand what “mounting” is. In any case, you can only mount file systems. And what is called for short “an ISO” is in fact file system as defined in ISO 9660

It is unclear to me what a “raw disk image file” is, but when it is not a file sytem of some type, you can not mount it.

@noobman Hi I would expect in your GUI File Manager a right-click and mount would suffice?

If not, can you show the output from fdisk -l /path/to/image.img

it outputs this

Disk Total.img: 684.46 MiB, 717703168 bytes, 1401764 sectors
Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes

reply please.

@noobman Hi, that’s not how these Forums work… it’s user peer to peer, so you need some patience.

AFAIK, do exactly the same method from the command line as indicated by @hui in the other thread you started. So what desktop environment are you using and file manager GUI?

kde and gnome and dolphin file manager and the default gnome file manager

@noobman In GNOME, just right-click, select open with and use “Disk Image Mounter”

Right click on it in Dolphin and select Mount.

If you don’t have mount then in Dolphin go to:
Settings> Configure Dolphin> Context Menu

Then look for Mount ISO And Disk Images and check it.
