Mount,remove iso???

How can I mount .iso to some directory use it and then remove it?

I managed to mount

mkdir /some/dir
mount -o loop /dir/of/the/file.iso  /some/dir

but I don’t know how to remove the directory that was created.

If there is a better way please show me?

What do you mean remove it?

You can umount the ISO and then rmdir the mountpoint after you have finished with it.

There is a nice tool call AcetoneISO that will let you mount the ISO and copy files from the ISO to your HD. Here is the web site AcetoneISO Official Website

You can also use dolphin to browse an iso file:
assume the iso is test.iso in the path /this/is/my/path
enter


iso:/this/is/my/path/test.iso

in the adress field in dolphin.
