I want to modify some configure file directly with the KNOPPIX image file.
But it doesn't work when I try to mount the KNOPPIX image file like this.
#mount -o loop -t iso9660 /cdrom/KNOPPIX/KNOPPIX /mnt/tmp
Following is the error message
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop0,or too many mounted file systems
Anyhelp will be appreciate.

see the cloop readme
http://www.knopper.net/download/knoppix/cloop.README
you will have to compile that module for your running kernel. ( doesn't require a kernel recompile if you have the sources )
Mounting a compressed image (see above for device creation):
insmod cloop.o file=/path/to/compressed/image
mount -o ro -t whatever /dev/cloop /mnt/compressed
--In addition to eadz's advice, I would try switching around your mount options, as such:
' mount -t auto /cdrom/KNOPPIX/KNOPPIX /mnt/tmp -o[mountoptions] '

Need some help from you,my friends.
it seems your cloop module is not compiled correctly for your running kernel. you will need to recompile the cloop module, make sure your kernel sources in /usr/src/linux match your running kernel before compiling.
Yes. I had recomplied the cloop module with the way you taught. But still have the same problem. So, don't know what's the problem.
Oh,I know what's the problem now. Maybe something wrong with the cloop package from Debian. It works well when I got the package from knoppix.net .
Do you know if there is a way to mount a compressed image( KNOPPIX ) from a running CDROM based Knoppix system?Quote:

Thanks.
