Re: mounting on /mnt is failing




Actually the message tells, that the mount point "/mnt/point" does not exists. If this directory does not exists at the time the mount command is issued, then mount fails. Create the directory with

   mkdir /mnt/point

and then mount the file system as before.

What about doing it as root, not through sudo

# mount [...]

or

$ su -c 'mount -o loop -t iso9660 isofile.iso /mnt/point'

I just want to mount some temporary fses, but mount seems not to want to.

$ sudo mount -o loop -t iso9660 isofile.iso /mnt/point
mount: mount point /mnt/point does not exist

Any clues?
