Steam deck users:

I want to mount an iso image to play rpcs3 games. When you use the mount/unmount command in Dolphin on steam deck, where do the associated folders and files reside? I've tried this, and some threads say it should show up in the Devices list,but it does not.

Any suggestions? Also tried Poweriso, but the iso image are stored on micro sd and don't seem to show up in the directory, only the steam deck internal memory is visible.

Thanks for any help.

ISO files are what is considered a ‘disk’. I don’t think they will work.. You need a different file type to run them. I’m not entirely sure on Steam but I do know you can’t boot from an ISO on a micro for playing games as that’s a disk file.

I routinely mount iso images in windows to install a game. Linux is less GUI friendly. There is a mount/unmount app that is supposed to do just that. Not working correctly.
I did find PowerISO for Linux and that allow you to access the iso image files at least.

    I rather enjoy a life of taking it easy. I haven't reached that life yet though.

    @BakerMan, Any idea what happened? I hope that your brother's doing good.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    Well, from what I've heard from my parents, he had a seizure last night, perhaps an epileptic episode, fucking died, had a near death experience, my dad called the paramedics, they showed up, took him to the hospital, and he woke up covered in tubes, and started complaining.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    He couldn't eat until after his MRI, when he had a bomb pop.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    What matters now is that he's doing alright.
