unable to mount atv.img #9

Hi!

If I try to mount the dmg-to-iso-converted image with

sudo mount -o loop -t hfsplus atv.img atv-update

I get:
ioctl: LOOP_SET_FD: invalid argument

I am using a Ubuntu 8.04 Live-Disk (kernel 2.6.24-1)

(I used "sudo modprobe hfsplus" before mounting)

Any idea?

Regards,
Frank

Forget it! It worked within a "installed" version of ubuntu.

Great tool anyway! :)

Thanks!

The wiki has a comment about doing loop mounts on a LiveCD. The LiveCD uses a 
unionfs and you can't create 
loop mounts on a unionfs. If you make a mount point on a non-unionfs mount 
point (USB flash) then this will 
work.
