Mount loop restarts unity

Question

i have a DVD iso file and need to mount it before i can play with totem/vlc. everytime i process this command:

mount /path/dvd.iso /mnt/python/ -o loop

unity restarts itself (something like 'Unity --replace' command)

how to fix or is this a bug?

Where do you execute this command? In unity command prompt or in terminal? — Anwar, Sep 10 '12 at 15:11
@Anwar, using terminal ..unity command prompt, is it the 'ALT + F2' command? — itagomo, Sep 11 '12 at 14:35
I believe this is a bug and as such off-topic on the site. Please follow the bug on launchpad. Best luck — Anwar, Sep 11 '12 at 14:38
This question should instead be filed as a bug report, and [as such](http://meta.askubuntu.com/questions/1317/what-to-do-with-questions-that-describe-known-bugs/) is off-topic, thanks!
