 |No, vn0 is correct. He's missing a -c though.

   vnconfig /dev/vn0 /disk/isofs
   mount -t cd9660 /dev/vn0a /mnt

Still no dice.

    # vnconfig -c /dev/vn0 /data/doscmd_C_drive
    # mount -t msdos /dev/vn0a /mnt
    msdos: /dev/vn0a: Invalid argument

FWIW, I've never had to use -c when mounting cd9660 file systems stored in
files.
