Rip entire CD-rom content to iso image

Hi, my friend asking for help on how to copy the entire CD-ROM content as iso image in Ubuntu today. So, I just show him some simple command by using dd . Hence, it will probably help others as well if I share the command in this blog.

$ sudo dd if=/dev/cdrom of=image.iso

How to use the content of image.iso? mounting?

$ mkdir /tmp/mountimage
$ sudo mount -t iso9660 -oloop image.iso /tmp/mountimage

H0w to un-mount the images if not using anymore?
$ sudo umount /tmp/mountimage
