“Perhaps you know how mount ISO image by commend line.
However, If you are lazy – like me – to use Konsole, Silicon is a
good choice for this task. I tried Furius ISO before, but I don’t
like it because it lacks KDE4’s integration.

“Silicon is an auto image manager and mounter (Iso, Squashfs and
… files) that work under GNU/Linux. It is released under GPL
License. Silicon has many features like:

“- Automatic Mount : Silicon can autofind a mountpoint for your
images and mount there.

“- Manual Mount : If you don’t like AutoMount, you can use
manual mount or single mount in environment to mount your files
manually .”
