• If you made disk image but decrypted, you need to use "PS3 Mounter (Decrypted)" to mount stuff.
• If you made normal disk image, you can use eg. "PS3 Mounter (Read Only)".

In both cases, you must attach disk image to loop device, eg. that way:

losetup -f /home/mint/example.abc

Then it will be attached to first free loop slot, and listed on devices list (lsblk) under eg. "/dev/loop0" which you choosing during mounting. If first free be /dev/loop1, then you choosing that one (in live session, loop0 will be probably occupied by that Linux). And so on.

Image usage is possible and recommended. ;]

Thank you! I struggled trying to figure out a way to mount the image. I will definitely give it a try, when I get a chance. I really appreciate it!

I will think in future about making images attaching easier for users not familiar with Linux.

DLC-1
Add-on for 2023-12-07 version available in Resources section. Untested! But should work.

changelog:

• all Mounter scripts merged into one
• all Unmounter scripts merged into one
• more tasks in Tasker
• scripts are now more informative
• scripts no longer have hardcoded paths (keep in mind, all from 2023 have) and should works from any dir now, including those with blank spaces

I don't have much time for testing and updating the rest of scripts, so please, consider them as experimental. Like always in case of DLCs for PS*HDH toolkits, and like always, they will be one day part of official update.
