gnome-disk-image-mounter

Attach and mount disk images

## SYNOPSIS

          gnome-disk-image-mounter
          --writable
          URI

## DESCRIPTION

`gnome-disk-image-mounter` can be used to set up disk images. Both regular files and GVfs URIs (such as `smb://filer/media/file.iso`) can be used in the `URI` parameter. If no `URI`s are given and a window server is running, a graphical file chooser will be presented.

Note that `gnome-disk-image-mounter` will not mount filesystems or unlock encrypted volumes in the disk image - this responsibility is left to the automounter in GNOME Shell to ensure that the same interactions happen as if the disk image was a regular physical device or disc.

By default the disk images are attached read-only, use the option `--writable` to change this.

## RETURN VALUE

`gnome-disk-image-mounter` returns 0 on success and non-zero on failure.
