Mount & Unmount with Simple Script
Ubuntu’s File Manager, Nautilus, has the option of using custom made scripts to carry out specific functions. Examples of what you can so with these custom made scripts are functions like making an image your desktop background, or setting a file to read-only. Today we’ll be looking at how to mount and unmount an iso image in gnome.
You’ll need to download two files, mount.sh and unmount.sh
They’ll need the apply the correct permissions to them:
sudo chmod +x /home/yourusername/mount.shsudo chmod +x /home/yourusername/unmount.sh
Move them both to the Nautilus scripts folder
sudo mv /home/yourusername/mount.sh ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts/sudo mv /home/yourusername/unmount.sh ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts/
And you’re ready to go. To mount an iso image right click on it and under the scripts menu there should be mount.sh and unmount.sh, click on mount.sh.
NOTE: I’ve just found that this only works with ISO images in your home folder
