We usually mount an iso in Solaris using lofiadm.
Apparently we can skip the lofiadm steps & mount the iso directly as an hsfs file system as follows:
bash-3.2# pwd
/iso
bash-3.2# ls
sol-10-u9-ga-sparc-dvd.iso
bash-3.2#
To mount the iso run the following command:
mount -F hsfs /iso/sol-10-u9-ga-sparc-dvd.iso /mnt
The 'df -h' output will look like as follows:
/iso/sol-10-u9-ga-sparc-dvd.iso
2.1G 2.1G 0K 100% /mnt

Very useful information.
