Is there any library available for opening or mount ISO-files with FreePascal?

Probably not Nick. But easy to call the normal OS commands to do so.

Yep, there is no built-in mount()/umount(); you'll have to call mount (or udisks) an use a loop device to mount the ISO.

A similar question arised recently but I can't find the thread now :(

Ah, yes; found it: Linux: how to mount/unmount a partition? (http://forum.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php/topic,43449.0.html)

https://torry.net/pages.php?id=249 CD Burning Library v.1.2 by Dancemammal, has everything you need to access iso files might need some attention in compiling with fpc but its a good starting point.

Thanks, will try this approach. Otherwise I guess its time to rollup them sleeves  :)
