Replace tempfolderpath with the path to the temporary folder and replace mountpoint with the
path to the file system location you want to mount the image. The path specified by mountpoint
must already exist.
mount -o loop /zlm7/ZEN7_LinuxMgmt.iso /zlm7/install
2 At the command line, change to the mount point.

rpm --import ./zlm7-publickey
