I wonder if there is a way to mount the KNOPPIX file, so that i can look inside this file and extract the files inside this file...

can anyone please give me the right mount options ?

in dsl you can type:

sudo mount -o loop=/dev/cloop7 /cdrom/KNOPPIX/KNOPPIX /mnt/test
ls /mnt/test
ls /mnt/test/usr/lib/modules/2.4.26/kernel/drivers/
sudo umount/test

You can use a lowest unused cloop you have rather than cloop7, I did that in case you have some uci's loaded. The mounted KNOPPIX is read only.
