Mounting RamFS, TmpFS, ISO image

Mount Ramfs
mount -t ramfs -o size=1g ramfs /mnt/ram

Remember that specifying size with ramfs does not limit the /mnt/ram. The ramfs is bound by the free RAM on the system, after which the system will start swapping and performance will be severely degraded.

Mount Tmpfs
mount -t tmpfs -o size=1g tmpfs /mnt/tmp

Mount ISO
mount -o loop,ro <img>.iso <destination>
