hi,
this is the error i am getting when i try to mount a iso image.

#mount -t vfat -o loop /home/schakrab/shuv.iso /mnt/cdrom
ioctl: LOOP_SET_FD: Invalid argument

thanx in advance !

shuv

ps- kernel is 2.2.12 which has loop device support ( modular ).
i already did an "insmod loop"

i can also provide the detailed strace message if u want :)
