Thanks, utu, I haven't done this yet, but I'm considering it.

Meanwhile I'm going through the mailing list and found something:

https://lists.debian.org/debian-knoppix/2016/06/msg00000.html -...

Wrapping up.


root@Microknoppix:/media/sdd2# losetup --verbose --read-only /dev/cloop6 /media/sdd2/sda1_2017-03-04.cloop
root@Microknoppix:/media/sdd2# mount --verbose /dev/cloop6 /media/sr0...

I'm at it.


This method also works in 7.3 but fails in 7.4.2, 7.7.0 and 7.7.1
For the following tests I used /media/sr0 as mountpoint instead of creating a directory named /media/test-cloop....

Just quick: Thank you very much! I'll try these later, some hours later if I can, otherwise tomorrow or next weekend.

The method I tried (twice) on Knoppix 7.0 was, after becoming root:

# mkdir...

Meanwhile I found a way to mount a cloop-image that works under Knoppix 7.0 but not under 7.7.1, so now I suspect that something is broken in 7.7.1.

WTF. Again:

I create a cloop file using the following commands:

root@Microknoppix:/media/sdc2# ddrescue /dev/sda1 /media/sdc2/sda1_2017-03-04.img
...
root@Microknoppix:/media/sdc2#...

I create a cloop file using the following commands:\n XXX\nYYY I

root@Microknoppix:/media/sdc2# ddrescue /dev/sda1 /media/sdc2/sda1_2017-03-04.img ... root@Microknoppix:/media/sdc2#...
