#15759 in-progress enhancement

Mount anyboot images on double-click

Description

This is hrev53921.

Double-clicking an anyboot image should mount it. It already does for raw iso images. If that won't work as easily with calling "mountvolume", maybe "diskimage register" could be called somehow (diskimage doing "register" when only called with the anyboot image)?

(Not sure the category "prefs/filetypes" is correct for this ticket...

Probably a MIME sniffing issue, I guess? What MIME-type are the files detected as, vs. a "regular" ISO?

comment:2 by humdinger, 2 years ago

The beta anyboot ISO is application/x-intel-image, the ISO of a folder created with "mkisofs -o test.iso /boot/home/testfolder" is application/x-cd-image.

Possibly we just need to modify the FileTypes handler for x-intel-image?

It is not as simple as adding a handler.

Failed to mount volume `haiku-r1beta4-x86_64-anyboot.iso': Volume not found.
