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.

    @SylverReZ, then the chance of potentially me wanting to have a phat xbox 360 is -1%
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    If you have one, then chances are is that it needs a reballing of the chips.
