How to mount an Wubi .disk file as an ISO on Ubuntu?

Note

Wubi?

Wubi is my favorite way to install (and use) Ubuntu on a Windows® machine. Please refer to these pages for more information:

my tutorial for Wubi, here on that website (and the slides are there),

that official website,

that French page (http://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/wubi), or that one in English.

How to mount a .disk file on Ubuntu?

Avis

These explanations require that you have sudo right on your machine.

Create a directory to serve as the mount location:
```
sudo mkdir /media/mydisk
```

Mount the ISO in the target directory (of your choice):

sudo mount -o loop /host/ubuntu/mydisks/root.disk /media/mydisk

Unmount the ISO:
```
sudo umount /media/mydisk
```

The main reference seems to be this page on askubuntu.com.
