, then rebooted the computer. Then I could mount `image.iso' on `/mnt/temp' simply with:

 $ mount /mnt/temp


This way, though, the iso file *must* be called only `image.iso.
Any way to put stuff in fstab that allow mounting an iso file with:

 $ mount <iso file name> /mnt/temp

, so being it possible to freely decide the iso file name?

No, not without using sudo.

I created a zero byte file named something like /mnt/iso.file.
Whenever I need to create an ISO image, I write it to that file.
