There are many use cases where you want to just mount an image without creating a container on it. For example you might want to just examine the content in an image after you pull it for security analysys. Or you might want to just use the executables on the image without running it in a container. The image is mounted readonly since we do not want people changing images.

NAME
podman-image-unmount - Unmount an image's root filesystem
SYNOPSIS
podman image unmount [options] image [...]
podman image umount [options] image [...]
DESCRIPTION
Unmounts the specified images' root file system, if no other processes are using it.
Image storage increments a mount counter each time a image is mounted. When a image is unmounted, the mount counter is decremented, and the image's root filesystem is physically unmounted only when the mount counter reaches zero indicating no other processes are using the mount. An unmount can be forced with the --force flag.
OPTIONS
--all, -a
All of the currently mounted images will be unmounted.
--force, -f
Force the unmounting of specified images' root file system, even if other processes have mounted it.
Note: This could cause other processes that are using the file system to fail, as the mount point could be removed without their knowledge.
EXAMPLE
podman image unmount imageID
podman image unmount imageID1 imageID2 imageID3
podman image unmount --all
