Hi All,

Is it possible to mount a .iso image using lofiadm without having superuser
rights on a Nevada box?


Here's a trace:
 -bash-3.2$  /usr/sbin/mount -F hsfs `/usr/sbin/lofiadm -a
/export/home/manish/workdir/nexenta-core-platform_1.0RC3-b80_x86.iso`
/export/home/manish/workdir/nexentamnt/
lofiadm: you do not have permission to perform that operation.
mount: Mount point cannot be determined

This on a Nevada b81 box
