I would like to map my virtual machine CD to an ISO file to read a service pack cd.  Is this possible?  The only place I see the ability to map the vm to an ISO is for booting purposes, which is not what I need.

Thanks!

Daemon Tools within the VM will allow you to mount iso's as a virtual device. It works very well. During the install of Daemon Tools you must uncheck the Daemon Tools Toolbar to not get the items described in the wikipedia article
