Hal doesn't mount anything as said. If you mean, in file browsers,
then that's very specific to the file browser that you use. For example,
mc (which is a text based browser) can open isos just like zips, rars
and many others, without need for any trick at all.

There are scripts and tricks around for nautilus (gnome) and konqueror
(kde) file browsers. But I don't know them myself.

cdemu is more like the infamous windows based Daemon Tools, they mount
the iso like if it was a regular driver, then you can enter that drive
and operate as if it was a phisical cdrom/dvd reader.

If you don't like the command like, there's a graphical frontend for
it, called gcdemu that might suit you better.
