You hardly ever need to write media and can do installations, upgrades etc remotely. So, with loopmount and virtual optical devices, Hit Select Output to name the ISO file and select the output path for saving the file. Loopmount -i flash.iso -o '-V udfs -o ro' -m /mnt Click Select Folder, select the folder that you want to convert on your computer, and hit the Select Folder button on the new dialog. If actions are limited, you need to insert an existing boot information into the file. Type in a name for your image file, then click Save to finish creating the ISO Image. Open an existing ISO file, then check to see if this ISO file is not booted.

They will be stored in 2 different folders named 'ORIGINALFILESARCHIVE' and 'PATCHEDFILESARCHIVE'. Two zip files will be created while patching. When you have finished placing all of the files into your ISO Image, click 'File > Save' to save the changes. The 'Dont Create ISO (s)'-Option is just for CFW-Users who want to just patch the Game (s) in PS3-Folder-Format without creating an ISO (s) subsequently. In this case, you need a slightly different command as the format of the filesystem is not cdrf but UDF: Click and select the extracted files, then drag them to the top pane of the UltraISO interface to place them into your ISO Image File. More recent versions of AIX and VIOS may be shipped/downloaded with ISO files for USB memory sticks. The commands are in the fileset which is installed by default. # loopmount -i /tmp/AIX616_dvd1.iso -m /mnt -o '-V cdrfs -o ro'Ħ100-06 image.data OSLEVEL README.aix RPMS.

Then we mount an ISO image (of a CD or DVD - see later for an ISO of a USB memory stick)

Have you ever used loop devices to mount an ISO image rather than burning it to media eg: in Linux?ĭo you wish you could do the same in AIX?įirstly, we can see that nothing is mounted on /mnt

Turn .iso zip file into iso file
