Loop device mounts inside the appliance don't work. The reason is just that loop device requires a filename to be specified, where a device is being expected. This is an example using a Fedora 11 LiveCD: $ ./fish/guestfish --ro -a ~/Fedora-11-i686-Live.iso Welcome to guestfish, the libguestfs filesystem interactive shell for editing virtual machine filesystems. Type: 'help' for help with commands 'quit' to quit the shell ><fs> run ><fs> mount /dev/sda / ><fs> ls / EFI GPL LiveOS README isolinux ><fs> ls /LiveOS livecd-iso-to-disk osmin.img squashfs.img ><fs> help mount-options mount-options - mount a guest disk with mount options mount-options <options> <device> <mountpoint> This is the same as the "mount" command, but it allows you to set the mount options as for the mount(8) *-o* flag. ><fs> mount-options loop /LiveOS/squashfs.img /isolinux libguestfs: error: do_mount_vfs: /LiveOS/squashfs.img: expecting a device name
