    Mount iso Custome Ubuntu Iso Problem

    Hi All,

    Trying to do some major customizations to Ubuntu and using these instructions

    https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization

    When I get to this step:

    sudo mount -o loop ubuntu-9.04-desktop-i386.iso mnt

    it's giving me a warning that it's mounted read only and then when I get to

    rsync --exclude=/casper/filesystem.squashfs -a mnt/ extract-cd

    it's giving a bunch of permission denied errors (even if done with root priveledges).

    Anyone have any ideas? The weird thing is the same steps in bodhi don't give me the errors but my bodhi install is a 32 bit version and I'm trying to build/alter a 64 bit version of Ubuntu so that gives me a different set of errors. Thanks in advance
    Bodhi 1.3 & Bodhi 1.4 using E17
    Dell Studio 17, Intel Graphics card, 4 gigs of RAM, E17

    I can be found either 40 miles west of Chicago, or in a galaxy far, far away.

    Unfortunately, I have not tried to modify the Ubuntu Live CD/DVD images like this. There are clear instructions and tools for the RHEL clone Scientific Linux, that do work well to make a custom installation disc/image.
    Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.

    Have you tried the read/write flag?

    Code:
     sudo mount -o rw,loop ubuntu-9.04-desktop-i386.iso mnt
