Most Linux distributions come with software to create, mount, or burn ISO images. Using these steps, you will learn to do this, and maybe even understand how it works.

Create the mount point. Run the command "mkdir mount_point" You can of course replace mount_point with the folder name of your choosing.Create and Use ISO Files on Linux Step 2Bullet1.jpg

Burn from the command line.
