Hi Rob. The filesystem that provides the mount point is ext3. As
for the iso file, "file" says that it's just "ISO 9660 CD-ROM
filesystem data. Once the iso is mounted (using loopack),
/proc/mounts says "/dev/loop0 /root/temp iso9660 ro 0 0" so I
assume the iso file really is just straight iso9660.
